Bruno Fernandes has ended the season top of the FedEx Performance Zone rankings after managing five goals and four assists in just nine UEFA Europa League appearances.
The Portugal international's all-round performance helped guide the English side to the UEFA Europa League final and, on a personal level, meant there would be no repeat of 12 months ago, when Romelu Lukaku leapfrogged Bruno Fernandes at the last to take top spot of the FedEx Performance Zone rankings.
