#1 Adnan Januzaj
Described by Sir Alex Ferguson as a “beautifully balanced player” with
“good acceleration”, Januzaj has quickly developed into one of mainstays
of United’s attack this season. Bearing an eerie resemblance to a young
United winger who made his debut two decades ago, Januzaj moves with an
elegance and poise that would put ballet dancers to shame.
With an ability to drift through challenges, as though they didn’t exist, the teenage winger has grown from strength to strength since the start of the campaign. Of Januzaj, Gary Neville said: “I genuinely think this guy could be one of the best in the world. I think he's that talented.” High praise indeed for a teenager who only broke into the first-team this season.

With the world at his feet, and the master (Giggs)
himself showing him the ropes, it certainly looks as though Januzaj has
the perfect role model to look up to in his quest to become “the best
player” in the world.
#2 Julian Draxler
Coming from a German production line that has produced some world-class
attacking midfielders, Julian Draxler has been heralded by some as one
of the brightest young talents to come out of Europe in a long time.
Although he play anywhere in the front line, it is on the left wing that
Draxler has made a name for himself with his quick feet, intelligent
passing, excellent close control and long range shooting ability.
Whether it is hugging the touch line and whipping in accurate crosses or cutting inside and threading the eye of the needle with a precise through ball, the 20-year-old German international can do it all. With maturity well beyond his years, he would be a welcome addition to any side looking to add some creativity on the flanks. If Moyes is out there, looking for someone to fill the gap on the left wing, the young German winger would be the perfect addition to the squad.
#3 Marco Reus
Over the past few years, Borussia Dortmund have developed some
world-class attacking midfielders, including the likes of Nuri Sahin and
Mario Gotze. But it looks like 24-year-old Marco Reus might just trump
them all. Having contributed 29 goals in his 30 starts this season, Reus
is having his best year yet, in terms of just numbers.
But, the truth is that Reus is much more than what the numbers make him out to be. Although an attacking midfielder by trade, he starts off on the left flank and likes to cut inside and carve out openings for both himself and his team mates. Whilst he isn’t a traditional winger by any means, his crossing ability is there for all to see.
With his precise passing, instant ball control and acute spatial awareness of what is happening on the pitch, the talented 24-year-old attacking midfielder is well on his way towards becoming one of the most crafty and creative midfielders of his generation.
