Its time for the last Issue of the Premier Leagues Top Five Series. In this last Issue for the Premier League we will determine the player who falls short of the Top Five and we will find out, Which player will represent the Premier League in the grand final.

Just in case you don't know why I'm doing the Top Five series competition, it's so I can find the most popular football player, not just on Bleacher Report, but to whoever wants to vote.

The competition works like this: the players will be my choice and my decision, and will be selected from the opinions of friends whose football knowledge I respect. Any players that could be added can be sent by comments from the viewers of the article.

I'll do a poll every issue to see who is the most popular player from each club, then at the end of the long article series, I will put all the top names into one big league article.

After I've gathered the favourite players from each league, I will put them into the end article to find out who's the most popular player overall.

I will try not to just include Europe in the competition, but also include some of the other major clubs from around the world as well.

The leagues I will look at will be the Premier League, Ligue 1, Serie A, Bundesliga, LFP, MLS, Brazilian League, A-League, Portuguese League, and the Dutch League.

Over all six issues we looked at Arsenal, Manchester United, Liverpool, Chelsea, Spurs, and Aston villa. In all six of the articles, people came out in their hundreds to vote and thousands to at least view the articles and for this I thank you as your opinions mean so much.

The Arsenal vote saw Fabregas win the Arsenal poll with 70.1% of the 344 votes, and the article got 18698 views.

The Manchester United vote saw Wayne Rooney take 37,4% of the 289 votes cast by the United fans and the article got 3121 views.

The Liverpool vote saw Steven Gerrard take 58.9% of the 341 votes cast by Liverpool fans, and the article had 2415 views.

The Chelsea vote saw Frank Lampard win with 60% of the 225 votes cast by Chelsea fans and the article made 1597 views.

The Tottenham vote saw Ledley King win with 39.2% of the 97 votes cast by Spurs fans and the article made 1276 views.

The Aston Villa vote saw Ashley Young win with 45.1% 0f the 443 votes cast by Villa fans and the article made 3337 views.

So who will represent the Premier League in the Top Five grand final. Will it be Fabregas, Rooney, Gerrard, Lampard, King, or Young.

No player has been ranked and the list is not in any particular order at this time.

Name: Cesc Fabregas

Position: CM

Age: 21

When you think of Arsenal, you think of Cesc Fabregas; he's Mr. Arsenal. Arsenal's best playmaker, and a player who doesn't just make assists but scores goals. In my opinion, he's the best player at Arsenal, but many of you may disagree.
