Another Premier League season is almost complete and when it is all said and done, the inevitable period of reflection will occur.
Who scored the best goal? Which team was the worst? or who was each team’s best player?
And thankfully, this is where we can help answer that final question to establish which club has reaped the benefits and got full value for their money.
A study by Sportsman.com has worked this out by dividing the players transfer fee as looking at statistics such as number of passes made, assists and goals scored.
LATEST FOOTBALL STORIES
Arsenal
Best – Matteo Guendouzi (£2,649 per minute, win, goal, assist, shot on target, pass, tackle, shot blocked, clearance, interception, cross and big chance created)
The 19-year-old Frenchman arrived for £7million from Lorient and has adapted quickly to life in the Premier League, while also being one of Arsenal’s most consistent performers.
Bournemouth
Best – David Brooks (£4,545 per minute, win, goal, assist, shot on target, pass, cross, big chance created)
Brooks has been a revelation for the Cherries this season and his displays have attracted the attention of Manchester United among others. Despite his slight stature, the 21-year-old is one of the first names on Eddie Howe’s team-sheet and has netted six times this season.
Brighton
Best – Martin Montoya (£2,262 per minute, win, clean sheet, goal, assist, pass, tackle, shot blocked, clearance, interception, cross, big chance created)
The ex-Barcelona defender was once understudy to Dani Alves, but is now an integral member of the Seagulls back-line and has racked up 21 appearances in the top-flight so far.
Burnley
Best – Joe Hart (£1,474 per minute, win, clean sheet, save, catch, high claim, punch, sweeper clearance, pass)
While the former England goalkeeper has lost his place to Tom Heaton, he has still managed to feature 19 times for Sean Dyche’s team.
Cardiff
Best – Greg Cunningham (£4,684 per minute, win, clean sheet, goal, assist, pass, tackle, shot blocked, clearance, interception, cross, big chance created)
The former Manchester City defender has played just seven times in the league for the Bluebirds, but it is enough for him to come out on top as the club’s best piece of business.
Chelsea
Best – Jorginho (£9,711 per minute, win, goal, assist, shot on target, pass, tackle, shot blocked, clearance, interception, cross and big chance created)
While he may have come in for recent criticism due to Chelsea’s disappointing form, the Italian started the season positively and has made more passes in the Premier League than any other player and recently netted the winner against Fulham.
Crystal Palace
Best – Cheikhou Kouyate (£4,154 per minute, win, goal, assist, shot on target, pass, tackle, shot blocked, clearance, interception, cross and big chance created)
He is the only player signed by the club with a transfer fee or to make an appearance in the Premier League this season.
Everton
Best – Lucas Digne (£4,692 per minute, win, clean sheet, goal, assist, pass, tackle, shot blocked, clearance, interception, cross, big chance created)
A wonderful crosser of the ball, Digne has a wand of a left foot and has arrived at a crucial time for Everton, who are going through a transitional phase and with Leighton Baines no longer the force he was, the Toffees have found his long-term replacement.
Fulham
Best – Maxime Le Marchand (£1,131 per minute, win, clean sheet, goal, assist, pass, tackle, shot blocked, clearance, interception, cross, big chance created)
It may have been a wretched season for Fulham who are destined to return to the Championship, but the French full-back has been a dependable presence.
Huddersfield
Best – Jonas Lossl (£646 per minute, win, clean sheet, save, catch, high claim, punch, sweeper clearance, pass)
The season began badly for the big Dane, who was replaced in goal by Ben Hamer, but he soon returned to reclaim his spot, playing 19 times.
Leicester
Best – Jonny Evans (£1,425 per minute, win, clean sheet, goal, assist, pass, tackle, shot blocked, clearance, interception)
The experienced ex-Manchester United and West Brom defender has become a fixture for the Foxes, even relegating captain Wes Morgan to the bench.
Liverpool
Best – Xherdan Shaqiri (£7,585 per minute, win, goal, assist, shot on target, pass, cross, big chance created)
While his absence in the last few weeks has been frustrating for both fans and players, Shaqiri at one point looked like being one of the signings of the season in the earlier phase of the campaign. A sublime free-kick against Southampton and a double against Man United have shown what he is capable of.
Manchester City
Riyad Mahrez (£30,181 per minute, win, goal, assist, shot on target, pass, cross, big chance created)
Pep Guardiola blamed himself for not giving the Algerian more game time, but his lack of action has not affected him being City’s most valuable buy and he has struck six times in his maiden season at the Etihad.
Manchester United
Best – Diogo Dalot (£18,700 per minute, win, clean sheet, goal, assist, pass, tackle, shot blocked, clearance, interception, cross, big chance created)
The 19-year-old arrived from Porto and spent much of the first few months injured, but since breaking into the team in December, he has become a fan favourite due to his ability to defend as well as get forward and attack.
Newcastle United
Best – Martin Dubravka (£1,178 per minute, win, clean sheet, save, catch, high claim, punch, sweeper clearance, pass)
A key figure for the Magpies, the Slovakian is an ever-present in goal and has been since his debut in the win over Man United last season. Such has been his form, Dubravka is wanted by Juventus.
Southampton
Best – Stuart Armstrong (£3,995 per minute, win, goal, assist, shot on target, pass, tackle, shot blocked, clearance, interception, cross and big chance created)
A £8m summer signing from Celtic, injury hampered his chance to make an early impression, but he has since settled and has helped steady the ship at St Mary’s.
Tottenham
No signings
Watford
Best – Ben Foster (£1,052 per minute, win, clean sheet, save, catch, high claim, punch, sweeper clearance, pass)
The former England shot-stopper has featured in all but three of Watford’s 30 Premier League matches this season.
West Ham
Best – Fabian Balbuena (£1,511 per minute, win, clean sheet, goal, assist, pass, tackle, shot blocked, clearance, interception)
Fans have been calling for Balbuena to quickly return to the side, having been out with injury since Christmas. And after a stuttering performance from their defence on Saturday, his comeback can’t happen soon enough.
Wolves
Best – Joao Moutinho (£1,237 per minute, win, goal, assist, shot on target, pass, tackle, shot blocked, clearance, interception, cross and big chance created)
The Portugal international has always been a class act and has shown that remains the case in the Premier League, helping Wolves become the surprise package of the season.
