8. Fernandinho, Manchester City – rating: 7.60
When the Citizens paid Shakhtar Donetsk £30m for this defensive midfielder last summer many thought it was going to be another expensive mistake for the Premier League side.
Those doubters could not be further from the truth however, as the Brazilian has been outstanding at the Etihad Stadium this term, allowing Yaya Toure to venture forward and bag 17 league goals no less.
