4. Alberto Moreno

Spain have developed a knack of producing quality left-backs it seems. Jordi Alba is a graduate from this side and it definitely has produced another quality player in Alberto Moreno. The player is on a youth contract with Sevilla but he is likely to have bigger clubs on the wings after this performance.

Moreno has the quality that one looks for in a left-back with pace on the wing that contributes heavily to offense. He is also equally assured in defence. He does not overdo his bit in offense, ensuring that he is not leaky at back and that only goes to show his levels of maturity.
