#4 Aymeric Laporte
Enjoying his first full season in the Premier League this year, Aymeric Laporte should be a shoo-in for the PFA Team of the Year. He has been absolutely fantastic for Manchester City, a stalwart in another fantastic campaign for the Citizens.
Having spent the better part of 6 seasons with Athletic Bilbao, Pep Guardiola decided to make him City’s record signing at the time. He has fit in absolutely perfectly in Pep’s system and is arguably the best ball-playing center-back in world football right now.
In addition to his elite passing ability, he also has a fantastic physical frame. He is able to stand up to the challenge of almost all opposing attackers, whilst also possessing a very reasonable pace. Laporte has unfortunately been absent from the French squad due to disagreements with Didier Deschamps, but on current form, he won’t remain out for long.
