Ranking the Best 50 Players in La Liga in 2018

It has been another momentous year for football in La Liga, with the shock departure of one of the greatest players in the history of the league, Cristiano Ronaldo.

For this year's list of La Liga's best performers, the former Real Madrid goal machine is omitted because he left mid-2018. We've also taken national-team duty into account for our criteria, as several players won FIFA World Cup winners' medals with France, for example, but we've weighted players' positioning in favour of their performances at club level.

The list will no doubt ruffle a few feathers. It has some notable omissions.
