Bastian Schweinsteiger – Germany
Originally a winger earlier in his career and encouraged to change position by then Bayern Munich manager, Louis Van Gaal, Schweinsteiger has developed into one of the finest central midfielders in the world. His workmanlike, controlling displays have been proving successful for both Bayern Munich and Germany alike. If Germany are to triumph this summer, the German fans will be hoping that Schweinsteiger playing well will be the catalyst to this success.
