1. Curtis Jones

It's the local lad that gets the nod on this list as he was a Swiss army knife for Slot to plug-and-play as needed.

He's spent time on the wing, playing as a No. 10, 8 and 6 this season while also getting brief looks at fullback on occasion. His versatility and professionalism are two traits that have made him a valuable and trusted player for any situation.

His 7 G/A don't tell the whole story as he has been asked to do so many different things throughout the league campaign.

He has underrated passing vision which has allowed him to alleviate so much pressure in the midfield and in the final 1/3 as he is also trying to move forward quite often.

His vision, versatility, passing and on-ball quality meant he was an adept option for several types of opponents or when killing a game off was needed. Jones might not steal all the headlines, but he is exactly the type of player you need in your squad if you want to win a league title.
