8. Adam Lallana, Southampton
There was uproar when the popular Nigel Adkins was sacked as manager at St Mary’s and replaced by Mauricio Pochettino last term, but the Argentine has gotten the best out of his players.
The Saints sit comfortably in the top 10 for the second season running and in skipper Lallana they have a supremely talented leader and attacking midfielder, who has nine league goals and six assists to date.
