The ultimate utility man, David Alaba has been one of the best players in the Bundesliga for some time now.

A Bayern Munich academy graduate, Alaba is well-renowned for his versatility. The Austria international can play as a left-back, centre-back, in midfield as well as on the wings. His passing, technical ability, match intelligence and athleticism is such that his quality never drops no matter which position he plays in.

The 28-year old has only one year left in his Bayern Munich contract and has been linked with moves to Barcelona, Real Madrid, Chelsea, Juventus and Manchester City. Since his debut in 2010, Alaba has made 384 appearances in all competitions for the Bavarians.


#6 THIAGO | 74.6% of all games won

One of the best midfielders in the world when in full flow, Thiago has been a vital component in midfield for Bayern Munich.

The Spain international joined Bayern Munich from Barcelona in 2013 for €25 million. While he has had a few injury concerns, the midfielder has been pivotal to Bayern's successes over the years. An aesthetically pleasing midfielder with good dribbling and passing skills, Thiago has been a fine player for Bayern Munich.

Like Alaba, Thiago has only one year left in his Bayern Munich contract. The 29-year old has refused to sign a new deal, with a move to Liverpool mooted. The midfielder has made 233 appearances in all competitions for Bayern Munich.


#5 ADRIEN RABIOT | 75.6% of all games won

While Adrien Rabiot might not be the easiest player to deal with off-the-field, there is no denying his quality on it.

A Paris Saint-Germain youth product who made more than 200 appearances in all competitions for the club, Rabiot decided to move to Juventus on a free last summer. After a slow start, the 25-year old became a vital cog in Juventus' midfield, with his strong technical as well as passing ability coming to the fore.

The France international, who was linked with Everton and Manchester United in January after a poor start to his Juventus career, looks settled now. Rabiot made 37 appearances in all competitions for Juventus last season, scoring one goal.


#4 NEYMAR | 76.3% of all games won

One of the best players in world football right now, Neymar is enjoying perhaps his finest season with Paris Saint-Germain.

The Ligue 1 giants decided to splurge €222 million to bring the Brazilian superstar to Paris from Barcelona, making him the most expensive transfer of all-time. After an injury-riddled couple of seasons, Neymar is now looking like a world-beater for the Parisiens.

The 28-year old attacker has dovetailed well with fellow superstar Kylian Mbappe, and the two look determined to bring the Champions League trophy to Paris. Neymar has made 83 appearances in all competitions since joining the club in 2017, scoring 70 goals and providing 40 assists.
