Ten great players who couldn’t hack the Premier League: Liverpool flop Iago Aspas, Man Utd failure Angel Di Maria & more
1) Mathieu Flamini (Arsenal)
Scoring two goals away to Tottenham, Mathieu Flamini’s experience and passion makes him a valuable member of this Arsenal squad, should he be starting more?
2) Andreas Pereira (Manchester United)
A terrific young player who scored a peach of a free-kick against Ipswich Town this week, Andreas Pereira surely deserves more of a look-in at Manchester United?
3) Loic Remy (Chelsea)
A fine goal predator, Loic Remy has never let Chelsea down when called upon, and should surely be ahead of Radamel Falcao in challenging Diego Costa for a regular starting spot?
4) Kenedy (Chelsea)
One of the most exciting youngsters in Brazil, Kenedy made the move to Chelsea this summer but has already done well to ensure he doesn’t go down the route of other Blues starlets, making a real impression whenever used – surely now someone challenging for more appearances in the Premier League?
5) Joel Campbell (Arsenal)
Impressive in various loan spells, Joel Campbell has never been given enough of a chance for Arsenal, but with Alexis Sanchez and others off form, could the Costa Rican be a surprise option up front or out wide?
6) Gerard Deulofeu (Everton)
Not a regular since rejoining Everton this summer, Gerard Deulofeu made an instant impact when used in the Capital One Cup this week, and deserves more playing time in the bigger games after a well-taken goal at Reading.
7) Ramires (Chelsea)
Unlucky to be a backup for much of last season, Ramires is getting slightly more playing time this season and has shown down the years how valuable he can be.
8) Jordan Rossiter (Liverpool)
With Liverpool undperforming, should Brendan Rodgers be bold and hand more opportunities to talented academy products like Jordan Rossiter? After all, the Reds have a great tradition of blooding their homegrown youngsters and this one looks a top talent.
9) James Wilson (Manchester United)
With Wayne Rooney off form and Anthony Martial doing well, should another pacey young striker in James Wilson get a bit more of a look-in at Manchester United?
10) Jordan Ibe (Liverpool)
A huge talent, Jordan Ibe looked like becoming more of a regular this season, but still seems to be out of favour with Liverpool, despite their lack of quality in attack at the moment.
