Top 10 playmakers in the world right now

#4 Christian Eriksen

Borussia Dortmund v Tottenham Hotspur - UEFA Champions League Round of 16: Second Leg

Eriksen has been one of the world's leading playmakers for some years now and he has been on top of his game again this season. The Danish midfield maestro has shouldered the creative responsibility for the Lillywhites.

Playing alongside Dele Alli in the number 10 role, Eriksen has been creating chances for fun. The Danish midfielder is a gifted player on the ball and his set piece ability makes him even more dangerous. His link up play with Harry Kane has been a highlight this season.

Eriksen has given a total of 11 assists and scored 7 goals. The 27-year-old has been on the radar of both Barcelona and Real Madrid, and Tottenham Hotspurs may have a tough job of keeping their star man next season.

#3 Paul Pogba

Arsenal FC v Manchester United - Premier League

After winning the World Cup with France, everyone expected Paul Pogba to step up in Manchester United colors. He was pretty inconsistent at the start, but after Ole Gunnar Solskjaer took over at United, the Frenchman has looked absolutely unstoppable.

Playing on the left side of the midfield, alongside Ander Herrera and Nemanja Matic, the Frenchman has dominated in the middle of the park. The 26-year-old has been picking out some incredible passes, scoring goals and winning Manchester United matches.

Paul has given a total of 11 assists this season and scored 14 goals. The Frenchman has been involved in the most goals for a midfielder this season. He is slowly turning into the 89 million Euros midfielder that Manchester United signed from Juventus.
