Arsenal have shaky pair in worst Premier League XI of the weekend

David Raya and William Saliba both had a ‘mare v Bournemouth on Saturday and make a rare appearance in this XI.

The XI is based on WhoScored ratings so blame the algorithms.

GOALKEEPER: David Raya (Arsenal)

Shoddy passing and gave away a penalty. It’s a performance which has seen him knocked out of the Premier League XI of the season so far.

RIGHT-BACK: Dara O’Shea (Ipswich Town)

Subbed with a back problem in midweek for Ireland and probably wished he had not declared himself fit to face Everton as he played a part in both Toffees goals before being hauled off just after the hour mark.

CENTRE-BACK: William Saliba (Arsenal)

Given a red card because he deserved a red card.

CENTRE-BACK: Tosin Adarabioyo (Chelsea)

Given a yellow card because he deserved a yellow card. Struggled massively v Liverpool and it was no surprise when he was hauled off.

LEFT-BACK: Kristoffer Ajer (Brentford)

Contributed nothing offensively and even less defensively against Manchester United while a yellow card also hits his numbers. Brentford miss Rico Henry.

CENTRAL MIDFIELD: Andreas Pereira (Fulham)

Booed off the park by Fulham fans who have watched some below-par performances of late. The passing was poor, the effort was negligible and the penalty was pathetic.

CENTRAL MIDFIELD: Lucas Paqueta (West Ham)

Repeatedly gave the ball away and created nothing of note before being hauled off after an hour of the capitulation to Tottenham.

RIGHT WING: Wes Burns (Ipswich Town)

Credited with an error leading to an Everton goal on an afternoon when he failed to find a teammate with a single cross. Taken off after 62 minutes in which he once again looked like a jobbing Championship player.

ATTACKING MIDFIELD: Omari Hutchinson (Ipswich Town)

Moved out to the right after Burns had been hauled off and did a little better, but offered literally nothing defensively as Ipswich were easily beaten by Everton.

LEFT WING: Jadon Sancho (Chelsea)

The Liverpool clash entirely passed him by until half-time, when he was put out of his misery by Pedro Neto, who created far more in his 45 minutes of action.

STRIKER: Kevin Schade (Brentford)

One off-target shot in 73 forgettable minutes earns him a place in this worst XI. He is yet to score a Premier League goal this season.
