Juan Mata
After being named Chelsea’s Player of the Year two seasons running there is no doubting that the Spaniard possesses class, but again needs to be given a role that suits his ability.
As any football fan with some nous can tell you that is as a No.10, where Mata can pull all the creative strings from behind the strikers and van Gaal looks ready to deploy the 26-year-old in a similar role to that of Wesley Sneijder in the Netherlands national team.
