10. Santi Cazorla (Arsenal)
Excelled after being thrust into a central midfield role and produced one of the outstanding performances of the season in Arsenal’s landmark win at Manchester City.
9. Wayne Rooney (Manchester United)
By no means the England captain’s most headline-grabbing year, but he was still the pick of United’s outfield players whether in midfield or up front. Rooney was top scorer with 10 goals and a valuable figure of consistency in a find-your-feet season for manager Louis van Gaal.
