It is no surprise to see the Portuguese midfielder on this list. The midfield magnifico has been a game-changer for Manchester United ever since arriving from Sporting Lisbon last year. The quality that Bruno has brought to United’s game has been nothing short of a blessing.

The midfield maestro has scored 16 goals this season, which is outstanding given the position he plays in. Of course, Bruno has been United’s regular penalty taker but let’s not take anything away from him because of that.

He has assisted 11 goals, the second-best in the league. His hard-working and passionate approach has been a delight to watch for every single United supporter and it is interesting to see where United end up if Bruno carries on like this. Winning the Europa League would surely be a good start and a deserved reward for Bruno’s contributions. Bruno has contributed a goal every 105 minutes in the 33 matches that he has played.

#1 Harry Kane (Tottenham Hotspur)

Kane must be eyeing for trophies at this stage of his career.

It is safe to say that Harry Kane has been the best player in the Premier League this season. His goal-scoring abilities, combined with his off-the-ball contributions, have been both important to his team's fortunes and a joy to watch for fans. It is a pity that his contributions haven’t helped the Spurs to trophies or a good league place.

Kane, with his superb finishing abilities, is the league’s leading goal-scorer with 21 goals. Like Salah, Kane has the chance to win his third Premier League Golden Boot this season. He is also the league leader when it comes to assists, with 13 to his name.

Kane has a stunning record of contributing every 80 minutes this season, by far the best goal involvement in the league. Kane also has the third-most goal involvement (34) in Europe's top 5 leagues, only behind Barcelona's Lionel Messi (37) and Bayern Munich's Robert Lewandowski (42). It is quite an achievement and it clearly shows how single-handedly the Spurs captain has carried his side this season.

His future at Spurs, though, is in major doubt as the North London club will once again end the season trophy-less.It will be very interesting to see where the Englishman will end up playing next summer.
