Top 10: Best benchwarmers in world football
10: Fernando Llorente | Juventus
The big striker was linked with Tottenham before he moved to Serie A champs Juventus upon the expiry of his contract.
9: Alex Song | Barcelona
Unsurprisingly Alex Song hasn't been able to force himself into a midfield containing the likes of Andres Iniesta, Cesc Fabregas, Sergio Busquets and Xavi.
The former Arsenal star has been treated as a not-so-super-sub since his arrival at the Nou Camp, and it's unlikely he will remain there for long if he has ambitions of playing regular football again.
8: Marouane Fellaini | Man United
The tall Belgian has looked a shadow of the player that Moyes paid near-on £30million for and, as a result, he's been dropped to the bench.
It's unlikely he will remain a substitute for long, but unless he can pick up performances he doesn't deserve a starting berth.
7: Stevan Jovetic | Man City
When a club pays £22million for a striker you could be forgiven for thinking that he will get his chance to the prove his worth immediately.
6: Javier Hernandez | Man United
Hernandez has had the rotten luck of having world-class strikers to fight against for the duration of his entire Manchester United career.
Currently it's Rooney and RVP keeping him out of the starting XI more often than not, but make no mistake; the Mexican striker is a clinical customer.
He'd happily walk into most other teams on the planet, but it'll take something special to elevate him from perennial benchwarmer.
5: Edin Dzeko | Manchester City
Another dubious case of a Manchester City striker not getting the minutes he perhaps merits.
Dzeko is a consistent goalscorer when he's given the chance but, with the ever-growing level of competition at the Etihad, has seen his opportunities cut relatively short.
4: Shinji Kagawa | Man United
One of the most inexplicable benchwarmers of all the men on this list, Kagawa just doesn't seem to have the right stuff in Moyes' book.
3: Angel di Maria | Real Madrid
Di Maria is now struggling to make the starting XI as Gareth Bale comes into his own at the Bernabeu.
2: Juan Mata | Chelsea
Probably the most talked about case of a regular starter seeing his stock dramatically drop, Mata has had to endure a difficult start to the season under Jose Mourinho.
1: Xavi | Barcelona
That's right, the pass-master tops our list of key-players who have found themselves on the bench this season.
