Cesc Fabregas, Steven Gerrard, Frank Lampard...Rafael van der Vaart?
When one looks to the Premier League to pick out the very best midfielders, a few names always come to the fore. Cesc Fabregas, Steven Gerrard, Frank Lampard and Paul Scholes are all phenomenal players with each and every one playing for one of the established powers of English football.

Manchester City vs. Tottenham Hotspur: Bigger Than the Champions League Final
Spurs travel to the Eastlands tomorrow to take on the financial might of Manchester City in a match that promises to be one of the highlights of the season, and is almost certainly more important than the Champions League Final for a number of reasons.
When the two teams met last December it was Spurs who triumphed after a brace from Niko Krancjar and a neat finish from Jermaine Defoe gave the White Hart Lane outfit full points. The 3-0 defeat signalled the end of Mark Hughes' time in charge at City, and he was soon replaced by Italian schemer and fashionable scarf wearer Roberto Mancini.
The former Inter Milan boss has continued the early good work set in motion by Hughes and, now, as expected, City stand on the brink of Champions League qualification.
Only Harry Redknapp's over achieving Tottenham team stand in their way of a potential £60 million, European and Premier League domination.
