I have gone with Aaron Ramsey here, though Santi Cazorla also factors to be in the equation, as Ramires does for Chelsea. Ramsey has developed as a world-class talent that does just about everything in any position.

A box-to-box midfielder, Ramsey broke out with 16 goals and 10 assists in 2013/14. This year he struggled with injuries but still managed 6 goals and 6 assists – still pretty impressive from a deeper-lying midfielder.

Ramsey is tireless on and off the ball. Wherever the ball is, you can bet that Ramsey is close at hand. He is becoming a better and better passer with each year that he plays and maintained an 86% pass completion last season.

Oscar is a phenomenal talent as well. He notched 6 goals and 8 assists last year. The Brazilian’s skill set is a bit different than Ramsey as Oscar has great pace and technical ability, but is not as prominent on the ball, whereas Ramsey can build play himself, Oscar cannot.

Verdict: Aaron Ramsey is a game changer and can do it all himself. Oscar is not so much. For that reason, Ramsey takes this one for Arsenal.
