8. Isco
It seems that Spanish creative midfielders are in endless supply. Following in the footsteps of Xavi, Andres Iniesta, and Cesc Fabregas, the 21-year-old Isco is another gem in both La Liga and for Spain's national team. This summer, Isco left the comparatively tiny club of Malaga for the bright lights of the Bernabeu and Real Madrid, and walked into Carlo Ancelotti's first team. He has already proven his worth, scoring a late winner in Madrid's opener against Real Betis, and following up with a brace against Athletic Bilbao. The winner of the 2013 European Under-21 Championship MVP award, Isco's ability to cut inside from the wing rewarded him with 17 goals for club and country last season. As if Real Madrid weren't enough of an attacking juggernaut already with the blistering pace of both Cristiano Ronaldo and Angel di Maria, FIFA players will have one more offensive threat to play with.

A basketball player, but more of a soccer fan really. I once watched in horror as an errant Chris Sutton shot broke my teammate's sister's nose in warmups against Manchester United.
