#4 Paul Pogba

Swansea City v Manchester United - Premier League

The most expensive footballer on earth - until this summer, Pogba has adapted to life back in England well. The 24-year-old Frenchman was often criticised last season for his lack of goals and assists.

However, the Frenchman appears to be a rejuvenated man this season, particularly after the addition of the rock-solid Nemanja Matic to Manchester United. Pogba has been given the license to push forward more often.

He has been the heartbeat of United in the opening three games. Pogba has been dominant in the middle of the park and has controlled the tempo of the matches extremely well for his team. He has scored two goals and assisted another for the Red Devils so far.

Pogba's two man of the match awards, against West Ham and Leicester, make him one of the favourites to win the monthly award.
