Lassine Amani

After recovering from a devastating forearm fracture that nearly ended his career, he returned with an ego even larger than his defensive impulsivity, dominating the midfield with relentless energy. This Ivorian defensive midfielder combines superhuman stamina and jumping ability with pinpoint tackling, though he often loses his way in defensive IQ. He doesn't just control the match; he makes sure everyone knows he is the best player on the pitch.
