2. Christian Benteke
If Aston Villa avoid relegation from the Premier League this season, they will have one man to thank – Christian Benteke. The summer signing from Genk has been a revelation for the club, justifying manager Paul Lambert’s controversial decision to leave Darren Bent out of the staring lineup. They will struggle to keep hold of the powerhouse forward after a hugely impressive 15 goals and 4 assists in the league. The fourth Belgian on this list, and a deserved candidate for PFA Young Player of the Year.
