#2 Georginio Wijnaldum
In the summer transfer window, when Liverpool signed Fabinho and Naby Keita, Wijnaldum's position in the Liverpool team looked under threat, but the 28 year old has been absolutely phenomenal for Liverpool this season. Due to injuries to several midfielders, the Dutchman has been used as a defensive midfielder by Jurgen Klopp this season and primarily in two formations, either a 4-3-3 or a 4-2-3-1.
Wijnaldum now is a first pick in the midfield for Liverpool and deservedly so as he has been brilliant for the Reds. The 28 year old Netherlands international isn't a defensive midfielder by trade, and that's what makes his achievements this season even more commendable. Gini Wijnaldum is going to be a vital player in Liverpool's bid for the title this season.
In terms of stats this season in the Premier League, Wijnaldum averages 72 touches per game and has a passing accuracy of 91%. The 28 year old has won 55% of his tackles, won 50% of his duels, made 11 interceptions and made a total of 15 clearances.
