Bernardo Silva, Monaco
There were plenty of standout performers in Monaco's side this year, and they're almost all represented here.
Silva was one of their brightest stars and has the joint-highest rating for a Monaco player with Falcao.
Squawka Football shared the stats behind his magnificent season:
Bleacher Report's Sam Tighe is a huge admirer:
The midfielder's 96 base dribbling and 95 passing are the highlights on his card, though 89 pace and shooting will also make him a potent force in the final third.
However, a better option wide on the right would actually be Thauvin, who exceeds him in every attribute. The Frenchman's 96 shooting and 90 physical in particular are significantly higher than Silva's, whose base physical stat is just 78.
Thiago Silva, Paris Saint-Germain
While Silva's league campaign ultimately ended in disappointment as PSG finished second to Monaco, the centre-back had an excellent season from a personal standpoint and helped his side boast the best defensive record in Ligue 1 with just 27 conceded.
As WhoScored.com demonstrated, the Brazilian's distribution is impeccable:
Naturally, Silva has been rewarded with a passing stat of 85, and his dribbling is even better at 86, so he's ideal for playing your way out of trouble or building out from the back.
A 98 defending stat is virtually unrivalled, while his 80 pace is strong for a centre-back. Ultimately, he'll make a far better option than Team of the Season team-mate Kamil Glik, who lacks the pace and technical skill of the PSG man.
Alexandre Lacazette, Lyon
Lacazette enjoyed the most prolific campaign of his career last season, racking up 28 goals in Ligue 1.
As Squawka Football demonstrated, he has been a force to be reckoned with for some time:
The Frenchman's 95-rated card will make him one of the most deadly strikers on the game, with all of his attributes—aside from defending, naturally—ranging between 94 and an incredible 98.
While Cavani boasts a maximum 99 shooting stat and slightly better dribbling, Lacazette's blistering pace will set him apart from the Uruguayan.
