Premier League: 12 Newly Promoted Players To Watch Out For

Midfield General: Alex Tettey

In a midfield which contains experienced midfielders such as Bradley Johnson and Jonny Howson, it is Tettey who comes out on top as the most efficient and important cog, considering his brilliant shielding ability. Defensive midfielders are becoming evermore important to Premier League sides - just look at the impact Francis Coquelin has had on Arsenal's incredible form - or Nemanja Matic's outstanding shielding of Chelsea's back four. Truth is, Norwich will be under the cosh for a lot of next season, and Norwegian international Tettey could prove to be one of the - if not THE - most important member of the Norwich side battling for survival on their return to the top flight.
