Alvaro Negredo (Manchester City)
Alvaro Negredo has been described by manager Manuel Pellegrini as the perfect striker for the Premier League, and given his performances so far, it is hard to argue with that assessment.
The Spanish striker is everything his compatriot Roberto Soldado isn’t – a constantly willing runner into the channels, immensely strong and able to hold the ball up, and a deadly finisher.
Negredo’s partnership with Aguero – also a hard worker off the ball – is a key reason Manchester City’s midfield is flourishing despite their numerical disadvantage.
