LONDON (AP) - Chelsea midfielder Willian led the Associated Press Global Football 10 for the first time on Tuesday.
The Brazil international has been Chelsea's most consistent performer in the club's poor season, and scored an excellent goal from 25 yards in a rare win last weekend, 3-0 at Crystal Palace.
Dele Alli was second, after capping a good display with an impressive goal in Tottenham's 1-1 draw with Everton.
Sergio Aguero polled third for getting Manchester City's winner at Watford.
Arsenal led the team poll for beating Newcastle to move two points clear atop the English Premier League. Atletico Madrid, the Spanish league leader, was runner-up, and City third.
