From 2010 to 2020, four different teams won the championship. Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea and Leicester City all lifted the trophy. Over the past 10 years, we've also seen some superstars like Sergio Aguero, Luis Suarez and Eden Hazard all making their mark in England's top flight.
In this article, we'll take a look at the best Premier League players of the past decade, i.e. from 1 January 2010. Success is an important factor in ranking. So we're talking about league champions, PFA Player of the Year, Golden Boot, Golden Glove, etc. Longevity and consistency are also considered important.
Here are the 10 players from the best Premier League of the last decade –

Milner's Premier League decade began in Aston Villa's midfield, playing alongside Stilyan Petrov, behind Emile Husky and in front of Carlos Kural, Stephen Warnock and Richard Dunnie. It will eventually become an important member of the European champions and the club World Cup winners. Several Manchester City titles in between have made James Milner an island of tranquility that never sinks in the rough seas of the top waters.
This decade has seen better players with more skills, abilities, skills and qualities. But in terms of longevity and dedication, few people can compare with this 33-year-old.

Vardy made his Premier League debut at the age of 26, scoring a goal and assisting four times in his first start against Manchester United, breaking records and lifting the title in his second season. Vardy, 33, shows neither slowing down nor settling down.
Vardy dreamed of becoming a professional footballer from an early age before being released wednesday by Sheffield at the age of 15. College, work, his mates, love life and money became top priorities; football was marginalized. We are told never to stop dreaming, but for dreams, life is often too fast-paced.
Rarely, dreams catch up with life. Less than six months later, Vardy finally became a full-time professional when he signed to Halifax Town. Less than three years later, Vardy joined Leicester City's Champions League. Less than six years later, he made his england debut. Less than seven years later, he broke the Premier League record for consecutive goals and won the league title. As a decade of English football draws to a close, Vardy is the hero in the most shocking personal story.

There's no doubt that when Leicester paid Lyon £5 million in the summer of 2015, Ngorlo Kante was one of the best signings of this or any decade.
In one of the most shocking Premier League title battles of all time, his impact on the Foxes was profound. A year later, he won the same trophy with Chelsea and then went on to win the World Cup with France.
2017 Premier League Player of the Year, PFA Player of the Year of the Same Season, twice named to the PFA Premier League Team of the Year and once named to FIFPro World XI, Kante has been one of the Premier League's best midfielders in the world for the past five years.

City's takeover of Yaya Toure from Barcelona is transformative as it showcases top talent who can move to an emerging force and still win.
He will go on to be the central figure in two Premier League champions teams and become another player under Guardiola.
In the 2013-14 season, he kicked off City's reign with an incredible 20 midfield goals. He was twice named to the PFA Premier League Team of the Year, twice the African Footballer of the Year and was named Manchester City Player of the Year in 2014.

Since moving to Old Trafford in 2011, De Gea has rebounded after nervously beginning to establish himself as the league's best goalkeeper. He has been named Manchester United's best player of the season three times and has been named to the PFA Premier League since his fifth year debut, showing his overall quality.
It's not common for goalkeepers to be considered the club's most important players, not clubs like Manchester United that boast of attacking wealth. But the truth is, without espanyol, the Red Devils could have finished bottom in recent games.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="29" >5</h1>
Since breaking into Tottenham Hotspur in 2013/14, Harry Kane has not looked back, thus becoming not only the first choice for Tottenham Hotspur but also the national team for England. Aguero has a solid lead and is the only one in a decade who has scored more than him.
His goal scoring rate puts him on par with the likes of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, and while that's not far off, he will also seek to add silverware, the only stain on his career so far.

From the moment he arrived to the moment he joined his vast collection with the domestic Treble, Vincent Kompany was loved by all Manchester City supporters.
As a three-time PFA Premier League Team of the Year and a winner of the Premier League Player of the Season Award, Kompany's influence was unquestionable until he scored in his final game at Etihad to beat Leicester City and nearly win the title.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="37" >3.Eden Hazard</h1>
In his seven years in the Premier League, it was almost impossible to stop the Belgian at his best, winning two Premier League titles and four times being named to the PFA Team of the Year.
He may have even had the perfect timing of his departure, with his last season at Chelsea being the one with the most goals and assists. To end his seven years of winning a Europa League title medal – and two Premier League titles sandwiched between the two – make sure there are trophies to match with extraordinary skill.

Hailed as the "best signing" in City history by forward Carlos Tevez, David Silva has fascinated fans and opponents alike with his organisational skills, his first touch and skill unmatched at least in England.
Nicknamed Merlin, he is known for his tendency to assist more than to score goals, and is a key part of all three of City's titles, including being named PFA Team of the Year last season.

The man who will be remembered for winning City's first Premier League title with the most iconic goal in history, Aguero is much more than that magical moment of 2012. That goal brought only one of his four titles to win.
Sergio Aguero recently became the second fastest player to score 150 goals in the Premier League and the third player to do so for a single club after legends such as Thierry Henry and Wayne Rooney.
In addition, he scored 20 or more goals in six of City's eight full seasons in the Premier League. He has twice won the club's Player of the Year title and has won a place in the PFA Premier League Team of the Year in the past two seasons.
Under Guardiola's leadership, he took his game to a new level and, one day, he could be considered the greatest goalscorer the league has ever seen.
