#7 Angel Di Maria
Angel Di Maria has been in excellent playmaking form this year and has been stacking up assists like it is child's play. He currently leads the assists table in the UEFA Champions League with 4 to his name from 7 games and he has chipped in with 2 goals as well.
Di Maria has been crucial to PSG's exploits, making sure Neymar and Mbappe are never starved for service. The Argentine continues to be one of the best attackers in Europe and his numbers speak volumes of his ability.
#6 Raheem Sterling
Raheem Sterling is easily one of the best wingers in world football right now. The nimble footed Englishman can step past defenders without breaking a sweat and is always a threat when the Cityzens go out to attack.
Sterling was one of City's best players against Real Madrid as well in their recently concluded Round of 16 second leg matchup. He has scored 6 goals and 2 assists from 8 appearances, only 5 of which were starts.
#5 Kylian Mbappe
Kylian Mbappe has now been named in the squad for Paris Saint-Germain's quarter-final tie against Atalanta and it will offer a great boost to the Ligue 1 champions. Mbappe had been out with an ankle sprain but he has been their best player in the Champions League this season.
Mbappe has made 7 appearances in the Champions League this term and only 4 of them have been starts. He has scored 5 goals and has set up 4 more as well. Those numbers are bound to get even better now that he is back in the fray.
#4 Erling Haaland
Haaland would have booked a place on the podium if Borussia Dortmund had not been eliminated in the Round of 16 by Paris Saint-Germain. Haaland had been having a ball in Europe's elite competition and was scoring goals for fun.
From 8 appearances for both Salzburg and Dortmund, 2 of which have been from the bench, Haaland scored 10 goals. He is still only 20-years-old and is well on his way to becoming a world beater.
