16) Emre Can, Liverpool, £9.75 million
Despite having to fill in at centre-back for much of the campaign, the German has still managed to impress. With Steven Gerrard leaving in the summer he may be deployed in the heart of midfield next time round.
15) Dame N’Doye, Hull City, £3 million
Another player from the North East who may be staying in the Premier League even if his current side do not. The 30-year-old has five goals in 14 appearances so far, and needs to add to that on Sunday to help the Tigers stay up.
