TEAM OF THEY YEAR 2016/17 MIDFIELDERS

CDM-N’Golo Kante_____The man who never stops running has been a revelation this season, one of the key factors in guiding Chelsea to the title.  The French engine was unstoppable, latching on to so many passes with tons of interceptions, and his unbelievable stamina was vital to Chelsea. He also won quite a lot of awards, including the PFA player of the year. His work rate, stamina, agility and awareness is out of this world, the little Frenchman cannot be bettered by anyone else.

CM-Luka Modric____Luka Modric this season was an absolute magician in Real’s midfield, partnering up with Toni Kroos to form a partnership that was unstoppable. His ability to glide past players, unlock the defense with killer passes and was a maestro all along. His performance in the Champions league final too was outstanding, providing a great assist for Ronaldo to secure the win. Despite his stellar performance, the Croatian did not get a team of the season card in FIFA 17, triggering many comments against EA SPORTS.


CM-Toni Kroos____Toni Kroos, the passing perfectionist was an assist king for Real Madrid, playing most games and striving to four trophies this season. He had a staggering pass completion rate of 93% in the champions league. He also popped up with goals too, in important situations as the two footed German racked up 12 assists in La Liga this season. He was arguably the best midfielder in the world, tracking back and making hard tackles, also creating loads on the offensive side.

SERGIO RAMOS!

Sergio Ramos, Real Madrid's glorious captain, and saviour in some games this season has been a vital member of the squad in Los Blancos' 2016/17 season. The centre-back is on a mind-blowing 8 goals this season, with 6 of them coming in the league. Sergio Ramos is also the highest-scoring defender since 2010, with a staggering 26 goals. Not only has he been on fire this season, he has overtaken Neymar AND Bale in number of goals in the league, who are two of the world's best wingers. His heading skills plus his defensive skills make him the ultimate defender. He has been scoring goals, and he turns up in the most important of games.  Perhaps the most famous was his dramatic equaliser in the 90th minute in El Clasico, and also scored another injury time winner against Deportivo to make it 3-2 the next week. He scored a cheeky 'Panenka' penalty against his former club, Sevilla in the Copa Del Rey which was an extremely close game. He also turned up to score two goals against Malaga to get Madrid back to winning ways. He is the second highest-scorer for Real this season behind Cristiano Ronaldo, ahead of the likes of Benzema, Morata, and Bale. Has Sergio Ramos been Real Madrid's most prolific and important player this season?

THE MANCHESTER DERBY

The Manchester Derby- The most awaited game this week was the Manchester derby, United vs City. Not only was there a huge rivalry between the clubs, but as well between the mangers. Pep Guardiola faced Jose Mourinho in a battle of tactics, as two of the best mangers in the world, previously rivals managing Barcelona and Real Madrid respectively. The Sky Blues were of to a great start, where De Bruyne managed to sneak in behind the defenders and the Belgian put a composed finish in the back of the net behind De Gea. The Belgian midfielder hit the post, but Kelchi Ihenacho was there to put the rebound in, and Manchester City was in heaven. But Zlatan made it 2-1, and the Red Devils were back in the game. In the second-half, was some amazing end-to-end football, with Zlatan getting in the way of Rashford's strike as the teenager's goal was called offside. Kevin De Bruyn hit the post again, and Man City were looking dangerous. In the end, City claimed a victory. Pep Guardiola completely outplayed Mourinho, as he got his tactics spot-on.  Mourinho just couldn't get it right. For me, Kevin de Bruyne was man of the match, John Stones at the back was good. But in Man U, Pogba was nowhere to be found, Zlatan was unconvincing despite his goal, and Bravo looked atrocious in net, and almost let in two more goals. Raheem sterling was impressive, constantly causing problems for Luke Shaw. Man City are now topping the table, and who knows how many more Man United would have let in if Sergio Aguero was playing. But it was an outstanding game to watch, and Pogba is yet to prove his 100 million euro tag, as he was trash against Man City.

HIGUAIN TO JUVENTUS!!!!

Italy's biggest club, Juventus have just signed Napoli star and top scorer last season, Gonzalo Higuain, for a whopping 75 million£, making him the world's third most expensive player ever, ahead of Ronaldo and Bale. The Argentine arrived in Turin and recieved a rapturous welcome from Juventus fans. However, the Napoli fans were not as happy, ripping his face out on a billboard in front of Napoli's training ground considering him a traitor. The world's most expensive striker has strengthened Juventus' squad even more, as if it wasn't strong enough. This is my look on the new Juventus squad.

                    Dybala                               Higuain

        Sandro          Pogba               Pjanic           Cuadrado
  
                                        Marchisio

                 Chiellini           Bonucci           Barzagli

                                        Buffon


This is how I think the team will look. Up top, you have got two clinical finishers, Dybala and Higuain. Dybala can play on the wing too, as he is quite fast and skillful. For subsitutes you also have Mandzukic. On the wings, you have got the powerhouse Alex Sandro, and another skiller Cuadrado on the right. Even Lichensteiner can do a job on the right. In midfield, it is just unbelievable. Pogba, one of the best midfielders in the world, who got 8 goals and 12 assists in the Serie A. Next to him, we have a player who was involved in even more goals than Pogba, with 10 goals and 12 assists. It's the Bosnian playmaker Pjanic who made his debut against Spurs in the champions cup. Marchisio in the defensive midfield spot, absolutely solid. And the Italian backline is just a rock, with Chiellini, Barzagli, and Bonucci with legend Buffon in goal. So do I think Juventus can be champions of Europe? Yes!

CRAZIEST DEALS OF THE TRANSFER WINDOW (BPL)

Ibra to United- Zlatan Ibrahimovic joined Manchester United this season for free, and I think he's going to be tearing it up in the Prem. Even atbhis age, he is one of the best strikers in the world, leading PSG to a load of titles, and every year of his season he has won a trophy. This could mean something for Man U, and I think he is going to be deadly up front for the Red Devils.

Mkhitaryan- Armenian international and Bundesliga player of the season Henrikh Mkhitaryan left Borussia Dortmund, to join Manchester United. I think his playmaking will be a great addition to Man U, and him in the midfield could prove to be deadly.

Kante- Chelsea boss Antonio Conte has snapped up N'golo Kante for around 32 million, and had a successful season with champions Leicester. His stamina, defending and work rates could power the Blues to a good season after a shambolic season at Stamford Bridge.

Mane- Sadio Mane left Southampton to join Jurgen Klopp's side Liverpool for 34 million, and the winger/centre forward will be a vital part in strengthening Liverpool. He is quite deadly in front of goal and could prove effective.

Batshuayi- Michi Batshuayi, has left Marseille to join Chelsea. His physicality could be quite useful and could fit in with Conte's 3-5-2. After bagging 17 goals in France last year, the Belgian youngster could give Chelsea a revival after 2015-16 where Chelsea were just horrendous.

PORTUGAL ARE CHAMPIONS OF EURO 2016!!!

It's done. Portugal have been crowned champions of Euro 2016. Things started off absolutely diabolically after Portugal's star man and captain was taken off injured in tears as it was his chance in the final to win Portugal's first title, but he got injured and taken off on a stretcher with a knee problem. Quaresma soon came on for CR7. I didn't know what Portugal would do now. But they actually played well. Rui Patricio was a wall after denying Antoine Griezmann and Mousa Sissoko with some astonishing saves, and Pepe and Fonte at the back were solid. In the second half, Coman and Gignac came on as well as Eder and Joao Mouthino. At the end of the second half, in injury time, Gignac mugged off Pepe in the box and had Patricio beaten, but luckily for Portugal, his effort came of the woordwork. It was 0-0 FT. As we headed to extra time, Portugal were looking quite dangerous. After a close freecick, youngster Raphael Guerreiro sent a brilliant effort onto the crossbar. After Eder out strengthened Koscienly he smashed a rocket of a shot from 25 yards out into the bottom corner of the goal and Lloris couldn't do anything with an absolutely sensational strike. 11 million people celbrated in the 109th mimute, as Eder had delivered to give Portugal the lead with 11 minutes left. Ronaldo was ecstatic, and so was everyone for Portugal. They held on till the end, and are victors of the UEFA EURO 2016.

EURO 2016 FINAL PREDICTIONS

It has finally happened. The last stage of Euro 2016, and it is gonna be a matchup of Portugal vs France. Will the Hosts go all the way or will Ronaldo's men clinch the title? I support Portugal, so I am hoping that they emerge victorious against France, but Les Blues are not an easy team to beat. Both teams look to use their strengths of playing on the counter attack, I think Portugal will win it 2-1. A little bit of magic from youngster Renato Sanches, Ronaldo and Nani have to shine, as well as Rui Patricio and Pepe. Griezmann is looking unstoppable, bringing his tally of goals up to 6 and played a huge hand as France beat the World Champions 2-0 with a brace for the attacking midfielder. Payet and Giroud are in top form too. Portugal looked good too against Wales. For Portugal to get a goal, Ronaldo needs to get into space, and he is extremely dangerous in the air, so he needs to leap over the defenders. This game could even go to penalties but All I know it is going to be a nail-bitingly close match, and I hope Portugal win a major title. This match could go any way, and may the best team win! 

Possible line ups

Portugal-Patricio, Cedric, Pepe, Fonte, Guerreiro, Carvalho, Silva, Joao Mario, Sanches, Nani, Ronaldo

France-Lloris, Sagna, Koscielny, Umtiti, Evra, Kante, Matuidi, Pogba, Griezmann, Payet, Giroud

EURO 2016 SEMI-FINAL PREDICTION

The Uefa Euro 2016 has reached the stage of the last 4, and the four teams that have reached the semis are Portugal, Wales, France and Germany. 2 crazy games will determine who goes through to the final. 

Portugal vs Wales-First up is the clash of Wales, who have progressed to such a stage in their first Major European tournament against Portugal, who have not had the most convincing of performances in the Euro 2016 campaign , but have played well. It is the battle of my two favourite players, Bale and Ronaldo. Both the Real Madrid superstars are the main men of their team and will look to kead them to glory. I am going for a win on penalties by Portugal after a 1-1 draw. Wales have been amazing this whole tournament, but they will miss out on Aaron Ramsey, an irreplaceable playmaker in the Wales midfield, whose contributions have been massive to the Wales squad. But I think Portugal will get the first spot in the final of Euro 2016.

Germany vs France- Now time for the big match. After edging past Italy, Germany face the hosts France in what will be a nail-biting game. Both the tournament favourites will battle it out in what I think will be a 2-1 victory for Die Manschafft. Germany's star players are Mesut Ozil, Thomas Muller, and Toni Kroos, and they have a solid three defenders with Boateng, Hummels and the best goalie in the world, Manuel Neuer. Les Blues have the likes of Antoine Griezmann, Paul Pogba, Dimitri Payet and Giroud has been in good form recently after two goals in a thrashing over Iceland. It could go either way, but I think Deustchland will meet Portugal in the final.

ENGLAND'S ABYSMAL PERFORMANCE AGAINST ICELAND

Iceland shocked the whole world with a triumph against England. After an early penalty converted by Wayne Rooney, Iceland fought back to make it 2-1. The three lions are one of the most overrated teams in the whole world. Such a world renowned team dissapointed again with a round of sixteen exit and only one win in four matches. Hats off to Iceland, they were brilliant tactically and on the ball, unlike Roy Hodgson's absolute joke of a team. No tactics, formations, just absolutely atrocious. Roy Hodgson as 14 million pounds in his pocket as a manager and he can't even produce a win against a team who's manager is a part-time dentist. Iceland have a population of 300,000 people, and about ten percent of the whole nation's poulation are in France for the tournament. England has more than 50 million people, and they still can't do anything. Horrible at the world cup, bad at the Euros, they couldn't have been more dissapointing. Roy Hogdson has done nothing in his time as English manager, and he cannot manufacture a good team with good tactics. But now about the players. Joe Hart in goal was terrible. The second goal was an easy save for any goalkeeper, but he let it slide through. He can't save a single shot to his left. A good season for Man City, but useless for the national team. And there was no passion in the English team. They thought the match against iceland was going to be a piece of cake, but they were wrong. The backline wasn't good, and allowed both goals to happen. Harry Kane and Sterling were just trash the whole tournament, missing sitters and not being to create anything. And why was Kane on set pieces? Someone who is 6"2 should be in the box not taking corners or free kicks from 41 yards out. Marcus Rashford, who was on the pitch for the last 4 minutes, completed more take-ons than any one else. Rashford should have replaced Kane or Sterling way earlier. Although I am not an England supporter but their performance just wasn't upto the mark. Hopefully the new manager and make something better out of them.

EURO 2016 QUARTER-FINAL PREDICTIONS

Poland vs Portugal

In this quarter-final, I predict that Portugal will go through to the semi-finals.

I think it'll be a nail-bitingly close match and Portugal will come away with a 1-0 victory. Ronaldo's men might just have the better of Lewandowski and co. I think either CR7 or Nani will get the goal to guide Portugal to the last 4.

Wales vs Belgium

Wales have surprised everyone and have been playing really well throughout this tournament with their main-man Gareth Bale. But I think Belgium are just the better side. Eden Hazard is on fire with his mind-blowing form, but I think this game can go into extra time or penalties. I'm saying a 2-1victory.

Germany vs Italy

Probably the match of the Euros, with both sides having performed really well. Germany are the only team in the tournament to not have conceded yet. But unlocking Italy's defence isn't any easy job either, with their full Juventus backline so I'm going for another 1-0 victory for Die Mannschaft. Italy played amazing in their victory over Spain. But Joachim Low's men will be the better side

France vs Iceland

 Iceland, the underdogs have reached the quarter-finals, and the whole of Iceland is supporting. The fans are crazy, and for them to reached such a stage is brilliant, with them beating England on the way. But I feel Les bLues will control the game and I'm saying the hosts get a 3-1 victory.

MY EURO 2016 PREDICTIONS

.Winner- I feel like the defending World Champions will make their mark with their 4th Euro title. One of the favorites of the tournamnet, I feel Joachim Low's men will go out and lift the trophy with their attacking and possession playing style. They have the best defence in the cup in my opinion, and the rock-solid centre back partnership with the best keeper in the world won't let in a lot of goals. And again, they have a creative midfield with the likes of Toni Kroos, Mesut Özil and Mario Gotze and a lethal finisher with Thomas Müller. So I think Die Mannschaft will go all the way, and I could see a faceoff between Germany and the hosts, Les Blues, France.

Top scorer- If this question was asked before the Euros, I would have undoubtedly gone for Thomas Muller, with an utterly outsatanding performance in both the World Cups, but he has gone without scoring for 3 matches, so I'm going for Gareth Bale for the Golden Boot, as he is the top scorer at the moment, and Wales are playing brilliantly in the Euros. Already scored two freekicks, I think he will end up with the most goals. Maybe someone like Romelu Lukaku and Alvaro Morata might get the goals, and of course you cannot forget Cristiano Ronaldo. But their a lot of options for top scorer, and it could be anyone.

Player of the tournament- I can see a lot of candidates for player of the tournament, but I have three names in my mid right now. One of them is Andres Iniesta, who won the award last Euros as well, and his playmaking and creativity and controls the midfield, with great awareness and passing, he could win it again. The other one is France's main man, Dimitri Payet. With two goals and an assist already, his contribution to France is irreplaceable, and I can see him winning it. The third one, and quite an out of the box one, is Croatian Ivan Perisic on the left flank. He has also scored twice and led them to the win against Spain, he is one of the more important players in Croatia alongside Modric and Rakitic.

THE SPECTACULAR ROUND SQUARE

Round Square is a worldwide network of innovative schools in 40 countries across five continents. Round Square has a holistic approach to IDEALS-which include internationalism, democracy, environment, adventure, leadership and service. I was one of the delegates for the regional young Round Square aged 11-13 in the Emerald Heights School, Indore in Madhya Pradesh. Our topics were Environment and Adventure, therefore the themes Dare, Dream, discover and Action, Adventure, Adrenaline. We embarked for a journey filled which was going to withhold an extravaganza of adventurous activities, creativity boosters, and engaging workshops that would benefit us for a lifetime. After a swift flight, we arrived at our destination, a quiet and small city, Indore. My expectations were blown away, with the grand sight of a giant campus, and some absolutely top-notch architecture. We were heartily welcomed with food, bags, bottles, caps and other goodies that would smoothen our stay. As we walked towards our boarding, I set eyes on Football pitches, basketball courts, Futsal pitches and swimming pools. It really was the great deal. I got my first look at our dormitories of 10 beds, and they seemed comfortable and I was quite exhausted after that day and I slept like a baby. The first official day started with a bang as after breakfast, the opening ceremony was hoisted where all the schools were introduced. Then we were helped to an extremely inspiring speech by who else but Capt. Naveen Gulia, one of the great personalities of India. An adventure seeker, he was suffered with a life threatening injury while in the army. Most doctors said the most he would achieve in life was pulling his own wheelchair. But he did not let the blow be fatal. He did not give up. He kept on pursuing his dreams and barging right through the obstacles in his life. He went on to create specially designed cars, break driving world records, and his thrill for adventure never stopped. I was also impressed by his excellent command over language, both English and Hindi. Next, we set off to the conference room, where our barazza session was held, where or group discussed how the motivating life story impacted us and how our thought processes were cranked. After lunch, we had a creative workshop where we had limited time to create public art using just one material-paper and then they were to assess our creativity, and our out of the box display of art about the theme"Lungs of our city". In the Evening, we travelled to a landmark of Indore, Nakrili Dhani, here it brought out a cultural portrayal of a village in Rajasthan with games, shows, rides and what I most enjoyed was the traditional food, which was scrumptious, and settled my rumbling stomach. An arduous but productive day, filled with events. The day after was quite different. We were expected to reach a semi-resort called Flames of Forest. We hit the road in the morning and reached just before noon after about a 2 hour journey. We checked into our rooms, and they were brilliant, commodious and plush with proper AC's and beds. We then went to a small factory which is brilliant in its own right. 25 years old, Kumbaya produces purses, bedsheets and clothes. But what's so special is that at the time it started, women didn't have good jobs and wages. Kumbaya wanted to put a stop to that, and they hired a lot of women, and fought against women discrimination. Antagonists tried to stop them by burning it down, but they kept on going. And now, to make the environment better, they also make clothes of waste fabric and bags out of newspaper. Recycling is a main part of Kumbaya. After lunch, we had creative activities of creating the same paper bags and a collage out of magazines on Eco-Tourism. We then had a night trek in the vast expanse of the forest. Following our pitch-black hike, next morning the adventure activities were superb and extremely fun, with a commando course of tough obstacle courses. Then we also went zip lining in the mountains, an activity that I enjoy a whole lot, as I seized the view sliding down. Then we reached back to the school, where we got ready for our cultural evening, where each school would perform a dance, song or play, with the lights shining, we performed an elegant and adventurous dance. But the end was just the best. In the principal's bungalow, a huge dinner was held with some lip-smacking food, and a DJ night, where we danced ourselves off straight to midnight. What an event! I couldn't believe what all we had accomplished in just a matter of 3 days. Round Square was unbelievable!

12 ANGRY MEN

On a pleasant Saturday Evening I set off to Lutyens Delhi. I first stopped for the most popular monument in Delhi, the tremendous India Gate. The place was absolutely swarming with visitors and tourists. I ate an ice cream in the warm breeze, and then set off to the Akshara Theatre, where I was going to watch a drama called 12 angry men, which is a movie from 1957. A young slum dweller is accused of murdering his father and is put on trial.The twelve jurors retire to the jury room, having been yold that the defendant is innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. Eleven of the jurors vote for conviction, each for reasons of his own. The sole holdout is Juror #8, who votes not guilty, and convinced all the other 11 jurors that the boy is innocent, with analysing testimonies, and plunging into details of the case, and finally they arrive to a verdict of not guilty. At first I expected it to be an average drama, but I was starstruck with the brilliance of the twelve's acting. I was impressed with the dialogues, the comedic scenes, and the values it displayed. Mu first proper mystery play, and what an absolutely magnificent portrayal of how a jury reaches a verdict. The jury spoke, we had a verdict, and the verdict was a clear. An evening well spent!

PLAYERS SKIPPING THE EUROS

Euro 2016 is the biggest continental tournament in the world, consisting of some of the most Football-crazy nations all across the globe. From June 10 to July 11, you will witness an extravaganza of skills, shots, dribbling, defence, passing heading and mega- superstars and some great footy. These are some rejects for the Euro 2016, who miss out their ticket to a great platform to mark their career. The Euros will be watched by millions, but these players will be off the pitch.

Hector Pellerin-The rapid Arsenal fullback has been rejected by Spanish coach Vincente Del Bosque. Overall, he's had a brilliant season, being one of the vital parts of Arsenal's journey to second place. His pace is astonishing, and his work rates are good and crossing and defence is good too. Also, he is just 21 years old, which means that the Euros will be a great place to make a mark in his career. I think Bellerin would've been great as a fullback for Spain.

Robert Huth-The German Centre-back has been a rock in defence for the foxes in their road to glory. Huth was solid in leading Leicester to the BPL title. His defensive work is amazing and he is equally good in the air. Although Germany already have a solid defence with Mats Hummels and Jerome Boateng, he should have gone even as a substitute.


Hatem Ben Arfa-The attacking midfielder for OGC nice has had an amazing season.But Didier Deschamps has missed out on one of the most skillful players in the world, with crazy tricks. He has scored some absolutely sick goals. In my opinion, he would have been a great option to pair up in midfield with the likes of someone like Pogba, Payet or Matuidi.

Diego Costa-Surprisingly, the Spanish hitman isn't travelling to France in June. Although Costa hasn't had the best of seasons by any means, he could still show his worth as a great striker in the Euros. I think he would perform better than someone like Aduriz, who is 35 years of age, and maybe he could reestablish his worth in June. I think this was a stupid decision, and some other Spaniards that are missing out also include Santi Cazorla and Juan Mata

Perhaps the best of them all, Real Madrid forward Karim Benzema will not be playing the tournament. The Frenchman is a clinical finisher, and one of the most deadly strikers on the planet.Benzema, 28, was suspended indefinitely from the national team after being charged with conspiracy to blackmail as part of an alleged attempt to extort funds from his international teammate Mathieu Valbuena. Otherwise, he is a brilliant player with great skill. But he will not lead the attack in the French team, with his experience and goalscoring ability, it's a huge loss for France.

Other players that are missing out are-
Vincent Kompany-Belgium are not playing the solid City CB
Memphis Depay-The skillful Man United left winger will not play a role in Holland's squad as they failed to make the Euros.
Raphael Varane- Young and a great defender, Varane also misses out a spot in France's defensive lineup
Marco Verratti-The PSG playmaker will not be representing Italy.

U-13 DELHI DYNAMOS YOUTH CHAMPIONS CUP

At a pleasant morning, 7 players from our team, Gurgaon Gladiators set off to Ghitorni to a farmhouse sports center, where we would be participating in our second tournament the previous one which we were victors of. Now this would be more challenging, after this being U-13, and players from Delhi were also set to participate, and suddenly the competition had just stiffened. We saw the players arrive, and they looked much taller and stronger than us, and from that moment, we knew we were infor a tough fight this time. The first opponent we beat 2-0, and we dominated throughout with two goals from me and we owned with great plays and we split holes in their defence, but the keeper just held them in the game. Next, we had a team that was quite bigger than us, and it was an arduous match. We put all our efforts into it. We were 1 down for some time, but we equalised and were ecstatic that we held them to a draw. The next match was against a team that had a quant name called cheeseburgers, and it was another match where we had a draw, this time both sides with no goals. After the group stages, we were all biting our nails who qualified for the final. We did, and against cheeseburgers once again. Their keeper was a wall and highly skilled, as we could get a shot  past him. But our keeper was equally rock solid, with some astonishing diving saves and speedy reflexes. Again, it ended 0-0. But this time, it was down to penalties. Here's what happened. The opposition scored and we missed, they missed and so did we. Then they missed and it was my turn. I had to scored, or we had lost. The pressure was mad. At that moment, my heart was racing but I converted the spot-kick to keep us in the game. Now it was time for Sudden Death. Our keeper saved it, and it was his chance for the penalty. If he scored, we would have won our second tournament as Gurgaon Gladiators. And luckily we did. He hammered it past the goalie, and we burst into joy. We got handed out our prizes, and we had been crowned champions once again. And we were even more over the moon, after all it was under-13 and our team was fully 11. Man, what a tiring day. But it was worth it, as the second trophy was handed to us

TOP 5 YOUNG PLAYERS(UNDER 23)

Paul Pogba- In my opinion, the best young player in the world. The Juventus midfielder is an absolute master in Juventus' first team. One of the best cm's in the world right now, the Frenchman is proving his worth with his rocket shots, his tricks, and his vision and play for the game. He also recieved the award of best young player in the World Cup, and has earned himself a spot in the FifPro World XI with his astonishing performance. He could go on to be one of the greats. He is an absolute top-class player and has so much potential aged just 23.

Hector Bellerin- The right back from Arsenal is doing a brilliant job for the Gunners, replacing Debuchy for the first choice right back in Arsenal. His blistering pace, which has made him one of the fastest players in the world and his great defending skills came in handy for the London Club this season. The Spaniard has pulled off some unbelievable runs and has pinpoint crosses. At just 21, Bellerin could go on to be the best fullback in the BPL.

Paulo Dybala- Another Juventus player, Dybala is a clinical striker, and is owning in the Serie A this season. The Argentine started off at Palermo and is a great forward in Juventus helping them to be first in the title race. Due to his creative style of play, pace, talent, technique, and eye for goal, he has been nicknamed La Joya (The Jewel, in Spanish). Dybala is only 22, and is a young talent.

Raphael Varane- The Real Madrid centre-back is a rock in defence, and his take-ons are vital in the games of Real. Also playing for the France national team, he is quite tall and his pace is brilliant for a defender. A bit more game time with Real could prove him to be one of the best defenders in Europe.
He is just 22.

Marco Veratti- Aged 23, the Paris Saint Germain midfielder is a hard working and creative playmaker in the Ligue 1, and has made his spot in the team with his passes and dribbling. He will also participate in Euro 2016 for Italy. He has won 4 consecutive league titles with PSG, and he will look to do it again.

THE TOP THREE PLAYERS IN BPL THIS SEASON

(Not in order)

1-Riyad Mahrez
The knees of Prem defenders tremble at the pure sight of the Algerian winger these days. Mahrez has guided Leicester City to the top spot this season with his bamboozling skills, his pace and his thunderous shooting. Mahrez has been smashing the BPL with some sick goals, and has gotten a +3 upgrade to his card on FIFA 16, which he desereves. The 25-year old has 16 goals this season, making him the 5th top scorer. In every match, he shines with his skills, passing and shooting.


2-Jamie Vardy
Another player from Leicester who has made them the best team in BPL this season is Jamie Vardy. He's had an impressive career, from being a factory worker to a striker busting nets and record books in the premier league. He scored a goal in 11 consecutive games, earning him a Guiness world record, and also the 2nd top goalscoring position right now. Who knows how many shots of his might find themselves in the back of the net. He has also gotten a +3 upgrade on FIFA 16. Jamie Vardy's having a party 
He has great intensity, great concentration. He's got a strong mentality and never gives up. He's an inspiration with the way he is because then others believe.-Claudio Raneri


3-Mesut Özil
The Gunners' central attacking midfielder has proved his 42.5 million worth this season with his top number of assists. Özil is the top assister this season, with a staggering 18 assists and is on course to break the record of 20 set by Thierry Henry and also holds 5 goals. He shells out inch-perfect passes with his splendid dribbling which makes him the maestro and playmaker of the game. His footy brain looks for spaces and thru-balls, and they are completed perfectly. What a season he's enjoying. The world cup winner has made Arsenal stay strong this season.

Of course, lots of other players have been great this season such as Delle Ali, Harry Kane, Dimitri Payet, Martial, Rashford, Lukaku and lots more , but these three are my favourites
