Sladjana Katic

With ballerina-like close control and a ferocious, assertive presence, this Croatian midfield dynamo dictates play with absolute authority. She slices through static defenses like a scalpel, though her lack of pure physical muscle sometimes leaves her vulnerable in shoulder-to-shoulder tussles. Her relentless work rate and tactical defiance ensure that she dominates the middle of the pitch for ninety minutes straight.
