Fonseca's tactics and regular game-time has helped bring the best out of Amadou Diawara, who was becoming somewhat of an estranged figure at Napoli.

Despite missing plenty of games through injuries, he went from strength to strength and provided an excellent cover to the Roma backline. He averaged an 89% pass success this season and put in a tremendous work rate.

Right-winger: Lucas Ocampos (Sevilla)

After unsuccessful loan spells in Italy with Genoa and AC Milan, Lucas Ocampos signed permanently for Sevilla last summer. After a morale-boosting return to form, he must be content at his choice of destination.

Sevilla's exciting attacking brand of football as well as the quality in the side brought the best out of the Argentine once again, who'll be looking to open his account in the Europa League against AS Roma on Thursday.
