30) Loic Remy
A fine goal-poacher, Loic Remy was a smart signing by Queens Park Rangers in 2013 and has since shone on loan at Newcastle and as a super sub at Chelsea.
29) Javier Hernandez
Arriving as a real prospect in 2010, Javier Hernandez almost single-handedly guided United to the title in his first season, before going off the boil slightly.
28) Laurent Koscielny
One of the best defenders in the country, Arsenal star Laurent Koscielny has risen superbly since arriving as a relative unknown on these shores in 2010.
27) Kevin De Bruyne
Despite not playing much at Chelsea, Kevin De Bruyne is a hugely exciting buy for Manchester City this summer after some world class displays at Wolfsburg last season.
26) Jan Vertonghen
A reliable defender who also provides quality going forward, Jan Vertonghen was a superb signing by Tottenham in 2012.
25) Romelu Lukaku
A huge prospect at Chelsea, Romelu Lukaku never got a chance in their first-team but has since shone in loan spells at West Brom and at new club Everton.
24) Ramires
No longer a guaranteed starter, Ramires proved a great find by Chelsea as he truly found top form in the season they won the FA Cup and Champions League double, with some important goals in the final and semi-finals of those competitions, respectively.
23) Christian Benteke
Joining Aston Villa as a relative unknown, Christian Benteke quickly established himself as one of the best all-round centre-forwards in England and moved to Liverpool for £32.5m this summer.
22) Yohan Cabaye
A bargain buy by Newcastle in 2011, Yohan Cabaye is a class act who deserved more playing time after he earned a big move to PSG, though he is now back to his best after joining Crystal Palace this year.
21) Olivier Giroud
An underrated striker, Olivier Giroud has consistently delivered the goods since joining Arsenal in 2012, even if he isn’t the world class name the fans want.
