Right Back – Antonio Valencia
A faithful servant to Manchester United, Valencia has had an outstanding season under Jose Mourinho. The Ecuador international has started 26 matches for United at right-back, also sharing time with Matteo Darmian at times. Valencia has one goal and three assists in league play, while also being a deadly threat down the right flank. His pace can cause problems for opposing defenders, while his peskiness at times can also force defenders to be lackadaisical when covering him. Valencia is a regular for the Ecuador National Team as well, and will continue to start if he plays this well for Manchester United.
