This might seem shocking to some that Paul Pogba has been selected in this list ahead of Zlatan Ibrahimovic. But the Frenchman has been highly effective for Manchester United despite general public ridiculing him for his transfer fee, his celebrations and even his haircuts.

There is more to Paul Pogba than all those things and statistics tell the whole story. He is ranked second in the average passes completed per game (74.5) and in the most accurate through balls (12) in the league. Pogba also attempted 2.4 dribbles every 90 minutes and was the link between United's midfield and their attack.
