#4 Son Heung-Min
The South Korean's future looked bleak at Tottenham Hotspur as the likes of Erik Lamela, Christian Eriksen and Dele Alli were rated higher than him by his manager. Even after Lamela got injured, Mauricio Pochettino changed his system which left Son out of the side.
It was Harry Kane’s injury though which proved to be a blessing in disguise. Son deputised for Kane, and how. Kane's second injury in March meant that Son enjoyed another goal scoring run.
Such were Son's performances that Pochettino reverted to a back four to accommodate him and the winger did not fail to deliver. He scored 14 goals and managed six assists in just 23 starts in the league.
Son's late flurry kept Spurs in the title hunt and though the title got away, his contributions did not go unnoticed.
