8) Robin van Persie (Manchester United)
No real surprises to see the Dutchman’s name appear in this top ten, especially when one thinks back to the year the front man has just had in the red of Manchester United, particularly the first half of 2013.
As it was then that the prolific 30-year-old was really making all the headlines in the Premier League as his plethora of goals, many of them sublime efforts too, lit up the English top flight.
And just the forward’s Goal of the Season effort against Aston Villa last April will be have bene enough to see the player make this list.
