The Championship is blessed with some fine dribblers this season, although the top 10 dribblers after 12 games of the season don't feature some of the names that may immediately spring to mind when one thinks of the best dribblers in the second tier.
Barnsley's Andy Yiadom has been deployed as a right-back for much of this season, making his average of 2.7 dribbles a game (joint with Leeds' Sacko) really rather impressive, and also makes him the only defender in the top 10, although he is also capable of playing as a winger.
Trained under Edgar Davids
Since 2010, Edgar Davids had been living in North London with his partner and had been participating in street football as well as managing Sunday league amateur side Brixton United. On 11 October 2012, Davids joined League Two side Barnet in a player-manager role, alongside Mark Robson. That was when Yiadom got the chance to train under Davids.
