Perhaps Manchester United won't miss Lisandro Martinez too much even if Victor Lindelof returns. And Arsenal's most influential player is also one of Arsenal's most maligned…
Most likely player or lucky charm? We looked at the points per game (PPM) leaders for each Premier League club. To qualify, a player must start at least 10 games.thanks to FBref For numbers.
Arsenal: Kai Havertz – 2.23
Among Mikel Arteta's regular players, Havertz is slightly ahead of Oleksandr Zinchenko (2.19) and Martin Odegaard (2.15). You didn't expect that, did you? Havertz isn't everyone's go-to player, especially when leading up front, but Arteta clearly has faith in him. And if the Arsenal manager is unwilling to give Gabriel Jesus a specific task, the German has a clear plan B.
Aston Villa: Pau Torres – 2.28
Since joining in the summer, Torres has been a huge asset to Unai Emery, raising questions from other Premier League clubs who were looking to punt but didn't. It's no coincidence that Villa have only won one of the five games they've played in their absence in recent weeks, and that was against Sheffield United.
Bournemouth: Adam Smith – 1.71
Perhaps Smith's rise in the ratings of Andoni Iraola is no coincidence. The defenders struggled to win games early in the season, but Smith became a regular and they went undefeated in seven games. The 32-year-old has only missed one game since Bonfire Night, a 4-0 home win over Liverpool.
Brentford: Brian Mbeumo – 1.27
Mbeumo's absence was significant, especially before the return of Ivan Toney, but there were signs that the Bees were starting to struggle even before the Cameroon international striker's ankle injury, losing three of the last four games in which he was available. Ta. Since Mbeumo's absence, Brentford have fallen from a comfortable mid-table to a relegation battle. It can't be helped that you can't protect the lead..
Brighton: Bad Verbruggen – 1.60
Pervis Estupinan is one start away from eligibility here, and the left-back, who boasts 1.82 PPG, would be a more reliable choice than one of Brighton's two task-sharing goalkeepers. .
Burnley: Jordan Beyer – 0.73
The German centre-back was one of Burnley's most reliable performers when he was on form. Bayer was injured in last year's final game against Villa. “Hopefully he'll be back in the Luton game,” said Vincent Kompany. That was almost a month ago and there was still no sign of the defender.
Chelsea: Levi Colwill – 1.50
it is It's hard to think of an essential Chelsea player However, in Colwill's absence in the last two games, the Blues have scored eight goals.
Crystal Palace: Eberechi Eze – 1.38
Roy Hodgson wouldn't be under pressure right now if Eze and Michael Oliseh hadn't continued to suffer injuries. One, or perhaps both, will be gone by summer. Palace can only hope they remain a Premier League club.
Everton: Abdoulaye Doucoure – 1.50
The Everton midfielder is just ahead of Jack Harrison (1.47). Doucoure has only played in one of the last six games, with Everton failing to win any of them.
Fulham: Calvin Bassey – 1.33
The player, who joined from Ajax in the summer for £19m, has missed seven games since the opening weekend, with Fulham failing to win any of them. Tosin Adarabioyo (1.36) started singles with Bassey pipping.
Liverpool: Darwin Nunez – 2.32
Nunez brings chaos as well as points, but Wataru Endo (2.4) deserves a mention despite being two starts away from qualifying.Jurgen Klopp believed Arsenal could do without Nunez.he admitted that the decision was a mistake: “Maybe. But I understand if you're right… we didn't play enough football.”
he can't make it to the end.
Luton: Gabriel Osho – 1.25
The Hatters defender missed the first nine games of the season due to a knee injury, but since returning Osho has started all but one game, while Luton continues to impress. The 25-year-old is no longer in the spotlight, with Aston Villa reportedly eyeing him.
Manchester City: Rodri – 2.58
City are dependent on Rodri. We'll have more information on this latest news as soon as we know it.
Manchester United: Victor Lindelof – 2.08
There's been a lot of talk about Lisandro Martinez being United's MVP, but Lindelof has proven to be United's good luck charm, so it's convenient that the Swedish defender made his return against West Ham shortly after. The Argentine limped down the tunnel.. Scott McTominay and then Harry Maguire will follow Lindelof, making him one to watch for those who had hoped all three would be gone last summer.
Newcastle: Nick Pope – 1.86
When Pope took a hit in the shoulder late in the win over Manchester United in early December, there was no doubting the magnitude of the loss. The donkey has since been dropped from the Magpies' season, winning just two of their last nine games and keeping just one clean sheet.
Nottingham Forest: Matt Turner – 1.00
This one is rather surprising. Danilo (1.06) has narrowly missed out on nine starts, and Turner's impact is not as positive as this might suggest. This is why Forest made a mad dash in front of goal, aiming for the goalkeeper. Gary Neville harshly criticized Turner, calling him “useless”, but you would be hard-pressed to find anyone speaking positively about his contribution this season.
Sheffield United: George Baldock – 0.55
The right-back has missed more games (12) than he has played (11) and the Blades are missing him. If Baldock was there, Blaze probably wouldn't have turned out so bad. As it is, They're working hard to get off this list..
Tottenham: James Maddison – 2.31
of course Premier League's most creative player He has the greatest influence on Spurs.
James Madison is back with the Spurs.
West Ham: Lucas Paqueta – 1.83
Similarly, Paqueta is the Hammers' driving force of creativity, so it's no wonder the side have been in a slump since the Brazilian was sidelined with a calf problem. Before that, West Ham had won three times on the spin, beating Man United, Arsenal and Wolves. They have not won four games since Paqueta's injury.
Wolves: Pablo Sarabia – 1.63
Sarabia had to apologize for using the 'ponde' emoji on social media when he was substituted against Fulham in November. Since then, he has played a role in all 10 Premier League games, scoring once and scoring three more in Wolves' run to the top half.
