#9 Victor Lindelof (Manchester United)
Manchester United splashed £30 million for Victor Lindelof at the starting of last season. He struggled to cope up with the pace of the Premier League and delivered a series of poor performances for the Red Devils.
Many feared that he would turn out to be another flop signing and when Jose Mourinho made it public that he wants another centre-back last summer, it seemed like the end of his Manchester United career. But Victor Lindelof was determined to prove his worth to the Old Trafford faithful and worked hard to become one of the key members of his side.
The 'ice-man' is calm on the ball and the modern ball-playing centre-back completes 88% of his attempted pass. The Swedish Centre-half was struggling with the physicality of the Premier League and was dominated aerially by the centre-forwards but is winning 2.1 aerial duels per game this season, which shows the transformation in his game.
His perseverance and determination to succeed have transformed him into one of the best centre-backs in the Premier League this season.
