Not sure of my final 10, but would have to include Eden Hazard currently top, Luis Suarez, Diego Costa, Ribery, Aguero and Ronaldo closely behind, and Messi somewhere in there despite not being at his best at the moment.

Others would perhaps include:

Koke
Oscar
Coutinho
Reus
Negredo
Ya Ya Toure

Would not have Hazard top (may scrape my top 10...JUST)... Suarez is by far the best player in the premiership...

Top 10 is too much effort...

but id add Bale to that top 10 list and Suarez only being beaten by a Ronaldo or messi (depends on how back we go on form) for top spot

It is, of course, impossible to categorize. For example I would always say Lahm is in the top 10 but then there are 10 better technical footballers than him. Probably easier to go by top 3 or 4 in each position. The best defender in the world probably wouldnt be one of the best technical players.

But as a random list I suppose I'll go Messi, CR7, Zlatan, Neymar, Suarez, Hazard, Bale, Aguero, Ozil, iniesta. In sure I've missed some obvious ones.

The problem with these kind of lists is that they tend to be overly in favour of attacking players, multiple lists of the top ten players by position or role (e.g. Goalie, defence, attack etc) would be better.

Just of the top if my head. Don't really rate Ribbery as a great individual.

Surley Wilfred Zaha must be on the list. He was tipped to be the first billion pound player not too long ago.
