Bentaleb appeared 21 times in all competitions for Tottenham during the 2013-14 season, and the prospect of even more minutes on the pitch next season hinges on whoever Spurs next manager is. But after drawing high praise from across the Premier League, it will be hard to overlook the Algerian. Estimated FIFA 15 Potential: 84
