#6 Antoine Griezmann

Real Sociedad v Club Atletico de Madrid - La Liga

Antoine Griezmann plays for LaLiga heavyweights, Atletico Madrid. He has been their talisman since his arrival, and has delivered for them on many matchdays. While he isn't the best player statistically, his contribution to the team is unparalleled. A great set-piece taker, good passing range and expert finisher, are just some of his qualities.

The World Cup winner is a complete player, and one without whom Atletico will struggle. The Frenchman has scored 18 goals and provided 8 assists in 36 games this season. He started the season poorly, but has now found form and has gone on a scoring spree. He is a centre-forward by nature, but due to his physique, he can play as a second striker when there is a traditional No.9 in front of him.

The former Real Sociedad player deserves a lot more credit for the work he does than what he receives.
