#2 Kevin de Bruyne (Manchester City)
De Bruyne is one of the many players whose current performances are an indictment of Chelsea's recruitment policy. The Belgian international failed to impress at Stamford Bridge and the club eventually sold him to Wolfsburg in 2014 after loaning him to Werder Bremen a year before.
He revived his career in the Bundesliga and won the Bundesliga Player of the Year award during the 2014-2015 season. His brilliant performances for Wolfsburg caught the attention of Manchester City which signed him for a then-club record fee of £55m in 2015.
The Belgian international's intelligence, passing ability, and world-class assists have made him the main source of creativity for the Cityzens, he finished the last season as the king of assists in the league with 16.
With Guardiola in charge of the Premier League champions and showing a lot of confidence in the Belgian, the future is certainly looking bright for de Bruyne and he is in with a shout for the biggest individual awards in the next couple of years.
