5 best players in Europe's Top 5 leagues this season

#2 Premier League - Kevin De Bruyne (Manchester City)

On top of his game

Dominant, intimidating and soon to be champions... you don't wanna incur the wrath of the Pep guided juggernaut of England that goes by the name of Manchester City. And in a team full of outstanding individual performers, one stone shines brighter than the rest and he goes by the name of Kevin De Bruyne.

Whether it is about leathering the ball into the top corner from 30 yards out or feeding the perfect through balls to the ever mobile legs of Sterling, Sane, Aguero, Jesus or Walker (phew), Kevin De Bruyne personifies midfield masterclass like no other.

The Belgian midfield maestro is on a constant quest to put the ball to its best possible use and is unrelenting in his efforts to retrieve the ball and pump it up the field for his teammates to pile up the misery on their opposition.

He has been Man of the match 7 times already this season. That is no mean feat when you're sharing the midfield realms with a player of David Silva's quality.

Kevin De Bruyne has no qualms about showing up for the big games and has already scored 7 and assisted 11 goals this season.

The 26-year-old has created 77 chances in total for the blue half of Manchester and has a Whoscored average match rating of 7.90. Well, his numbers seem to suggest that City have been profligate in front of goal. That's the quality of the man.

Here's De Bruyne being De Bruyne...
