I wish the Premier League had a 2nd team of the season, similar to the NBA, where they have an All-NBA first and second team. Players like Solanke, Bowen, Gordan, etc need a shout.
Fr would be nice if they did, a lot of great seasons go underappreciated every season.
Foden too
that's a brilliant idea IMO.
@@statisticallysoundare you implying foden should be in the 2nd team? He’s definitely in the team of the season, he got the player of the season trophy lol
@@joshd8777 yeah I mean I wouldn’t have him in my team of the season, but he definitely is in the discussion for the second team, he finally has been able to make a starting role for himself after the KDB injury and make an impact this year
"we should put Foden on the wing because he's done most his good work in the middle"
*proceeds to put Cunha LW*
Right😂 make it make sense
Watkins doesn't take penalties!
That's what makes his stats even better Haaland scored 7 pens, Palmer 9 pens and Watkins still joint first for G/A. UTV
Solanke and Bowen are very unfortunate this year, and both have been amazing overall and most other seasons stand out
I think you were harsh on Robinson. Only one of the three options who was consistent all season. He is perhaps the best defensive left back in the prem and a strong progressive ball carrier. He certainly had the best season, regardless of Gvardiol's potential quality.
Yeah, I agree, but I would have just given it to udogie (very close) because look at spurs without him. Recently, they might of gotten a draw vs. Arsenal or/and Liverpool or Chelsea and gvardiol is recency bias, aka was ahead of him like last month
@@number1chesschampionsket683 The best ability is availability. Robinson has played 36 of 37. You don’t have to wonder what Fulham look like without him this season. I get your point w udogie though.
It’s just the old classic scenario of no-one watching Fulham’s games that intensely compared to Man City for example
@DJHoneyBee yeah both have been great
@@benlane7282 robinson and gvardiol has been great but Gvardiol far more deserve be in my PL and Bundesliga tots for me
You should do a worst team of the season, but it’s just Sheffield United plus DCL
DCL can’t be in there because of the derby alone but I’m happy to put Beto in there
Surely gotta have Casemiro in there too
@@mattytorleymotherfucker turned into Drogba vs us hahahaha
Both these replies make good points. So we do Sheffield United + Casemiro and maybe Beto becomes a shit sub for a shit team lol
Put anyone from United above the age of 21
Martínez
White - Virgil - Maghalaes - Gvardiol
Rodri - Rice
Palmer - Odegaard - Foden
Watkins
vicario!!
Gvardiol doesn’t get in for me wasnt good until a few months ago
Nah Martinez @@0hReactions
How can the team that didn’t win the league have the most players? 😂 delusional
90% agree, I would just go with Raya instead of Martinez
No odegaard is a crime
????
No it’s not
Watch the video mate.
Ahead of foden? Don’t be stupid
Arsenal fans need to chill
How is Gabriel not in here? Arguably been better this season than Saliba. Liverpool collapsed.
It's about individual performances, if Gabriel was better than saliba this Season then it should be him instead but not the both of them
@@ermalmulaku4469 Individually they were the 2 best of the season
@@gomeze8230 saliba or gabriel weren't better with their individual performances than VVD this season, you can look at all the statistics rating the performance of a defender. They were the best as a CB pair though.
@gomeze8230 thats statistically wrong. Indiivdually VVD has been the best, thats how good hes been
@@stevetrevor7004just putting up big numbers cause Liverpool's midfield gets bypassed so often for various reasons.
I changed my mind, after seeing the full team I can't back it
My personal choice as captain is John McGinn
You can pick the other 10 players
Pau Torres has criminally gone under the radar this year, hes completely evolved Aston Villas defence, hes pivotal in their overachievement this year. To step in full time with Mings out for the year and hit the ground running how he has, hes been solid. Unbelievably composed in possession and is capable of dropping the ball over the top of the opposing defence, creates so many chances
this season Aston Villa play so well is because of the midfield. I mean imagine how beast of a player Kamara will be if not having long injury
@@johnlau6749 agreed mate Kamara was phenomenal before getting injured and Villa really missed him towards the back end of the season.
Watkins in (rightly so) with 19 goals playing for a side in 4th.
Solanke not mentioned with 19 goals playing for a side in 11th…. 🤔
watkins does have 13 assists as well🤷🏻♂️
@@ciaranharper8194 He does, why he’s rightly in for me. Just mad Solanke rarely gets mentioned imo.
@@tomjordan2242 not wrong tbf mate, deserves some form of recognition but i think James did put him quite highly when they were ranking strikers at each club on the saturday social.

Need that ‘How West Ham will set up under Lopetegui’ & transfer discussion 🙏🙏
Ødegaard is so underrated, he’s the only player who does absolutely everything in a game, he runs the entire team every single game, players are normally world class at finishing at creating at crossing and so on but Ødegaard genuinely just does absolutely every job on the pitch to an amazing level
This isn't me being biased as a liverpool fan. But in terms of impact made and expectations exceeded, conor bradley filling TAAs shoes was an exceptional job nobody ever expected and was world class. Shame he won't get the same recognition because he deserves it. Also a funny part is andy Robertsons statistics are even better than ben whites in terms of %s. Like literally 34 game to 17 = 1/2. 8 goal contributions to 5. Works out for ben white a goal contribution just over once every 8 games, andy Robertson just less than 1 every 5 games. Plus ben white played 10 more games than TAA and he only managed to get 1 more goal and equal assists. Stop over hyping ben white
He is an arsenal fanboy still crying
GK - Martinez
LB - Udogie
CB - Gabriel
CB - Saliba
RB - Porro
CDM - Rodri
CM - Odegard
CAM - Palmer
LW - Foden
ST - Watkins
RW - Saka
I agree with most of this team, palmer/ saka debate is valid, coming from an arsenal fan. Ben white not being the RB is a crime
Gvardiol over Robinson is insane. Gvardiol was getting flop shouts for 90% of the season then chipped in a few goals. Robinson was class all season
You’ve gotta give Leon Bailey a shout in there!
Earlier in the year Trippier and Maddison were on track to be in the team of the year but now they are not even in contention realistically. Things change.
LW Leandro Trossard
He's been very good, but has only been heavily involved in the latter part of the season. Gordon has to be clear, he has been so impactful starting games for the majority of the season.
Trossard LW stats pretty close to Gordon 👀
Was only half listening and heard " no ones been on the ball more than martinez this season "
Though it was a stat😂
Martinez would love that tactic
Walker Peters, H-Bellis, Kepre, Davis, S. Charles, A. Mowatt, KD Hall, M. Johnston, O. Hutchinson, K. Moore
Bench (with only midfs and fws 4 nw): G. Kamara, D. Neil, J. Bellingham, G. Sara, Fatawu, J. Clarke, Bowler, C. Summerville, G. Rutter
James I know you’re a Championship fan but making Daniel Farke manager of the season is outrageous
Very thorough and good you gave Salah serious consideration given his numbers are STILL up there despite him missing a big chunk of the season and then missing another chunk metaphorically, got a little annoying seeing all the teams on Twitter and no one even mention him in consideration. Palmer the right choice though. The only thing I'd do differently is have a back three - lose both full backs and put Gabriel in and make room for an extra attacking player which would probably be Haaland. MAYBE pickford for marti but not that fussed on that
Brilliant video but one minor gripe. Watkins doesn't take penalties, Douglas Luiz takes Villa's penalties. Quality work as usual though 👍
Martinez, Torres, Konsa, Luiz, Bailey, Watkins
+ White, Gvardiol, Rodri, Rice, Odegaard
Porro has been brilliant this yr. So crucial to our play
This need for people to shoehorn a player into a position they don't play really irks me man. Gordon has been by far the best Left Winger this season and nobody is close but let's throw Foden there because we don't have the bottle to make a tough decision on the right wing. Let's just put Gabriel at Left back as he has been better than any left back this season if that's the case. It's just ugh.
It's a made-up team with made-up criteria that ultimately doesn't have a precise, useful purpose. Maybe chill.
@gionnifer what's the point having it if it doesn't serve a purpose? It's meant for giving players that deserve it their flowers.
It’s the best 11 not the best 11 in their exact position, every team players different systems mate
@@alfiegoff96 SO why isn't Gabriel there then?
@@SirMonkeySuitbecause there are better players than him
I wished you’d done a deeper dive into Saka’s underlying numbers, his impact has been severely understated this season. xA or gamestate changing G/As shows that looking at G/A only doesn’t do him justice. Also check out his defensive numbers, they’re insane, his defensive responsibility this season is completely overlooked when discussing output compared to others.
Mac Allister shout for midfield??
I’m surprised that you went for my exact team
Roméo Lavia is the best defender in the world
Should be using per90s, James, at least. Changes a fair bit.
gk vicario

cb vvd

One thing you got wrong James, watkins has not taken penalties this season which makes his goals tally even more impressive
Robinson has been the best left back this season. Most interceptions in the prem too
Ait Nouri clear
Idk if I can vote Martinez after that howler vs Liverpool
No KDB? Even missing half the season he might get the most assists this season. That’s insane
Yeah but the main point of tots is players that have been consistent throughout, or at the very least been mostly available throughout. No one is doubting the quality of kdb
Martinez great shout, elite and underrated
How has Leon Bailey not even been mentioned in this?
Vicario not being nominated is insane
I largely ageee but LBs havent been great enough this year. So id go with a back three, put Odegaard in the 8 and foden in the 10. Then swap Gvardiol for Gordon n put him LW
This a stats team, I mean stats are good but maybe watch the Premier League more and look at the stat sheet less. Just my opinion still love the vid and the channel. Only forwards
Can't a a TOTS seriously without Saka in it.
Puts in a Right back shift & still keeps pace with his rivals who are given a free role.
Just check his defensive numbers, and to STILL get that attacking output- has to be in there. Every game; the first shot, the first cross- that first chance; He's the one who gets the team going.
Arteta needs to give him less defensive responsibility so he can show why he's a tier above those he's compared to.
I would switch VVD with Gabriel but agree with the rest
Gvardiol in TOTS is nasty business
Where was vicarios name in the goalkeepers
3 behind the striker - Foden Palmer Saka
No way Odegaard doesn't get in; and no way is Gvardiol the best LB this season. Both Udogie and Robinson are clear of the dude. Did slightly redeem himself with the Watkins pick though.
The disrespect to Gabriel Magalhaes is crazy.
Its VVD
Give your head a wobble
Vicario was everyone's pick during the winter break, but no one has even mentioned him in any TOTS picks. Has he been that bad?
Na his weaknesses just got exposed more second half of the season mainly how bad he is at claiming crosses into the box especially from corners. Kind of the same thing that happened to doku, they come in and look great but once teams have a bit of film to watch on them they get figured out a bit.
@@RafaelRodriguez-mx7fdit’s not his fault the league allows attackers to foul keepers. The rule will be changed this summer
@@OPRAHRULZ come on man can’t just blame it all on the rules every player has stuff they struggle at and that’s definitely something he struggles with. Every team in the league targeted his weakness in dealing with corners the second half of the season, sending inswingers most other keepers would claim
@@RafaelRodriguez-mx7fd they targeted it because it is a dubious rule that needs to be amended
I feel like Macca has gone very underrated this season. Joined LFC, has to be part of a brand new midfield. Played out of position as a 6 for the start and during some games and has done pretty good (advance metrics puts him in good company). When moved to his preferred 8 he has done even better. Scored 2 ridiculously good goals this season. His goals and assist numbers might not be up there with others but you can’t judge an 8 solely on goals and assists. That’s like saying Kroos isn’t a world class midfielder bc he never scores goals and gets tons of assists. (Ignoring the fact he does everything at a high level which is way more important than basic stats).
no vicario mention is a crime
Vicario has been impressive, but his lack of presence in his box has been one of Spurs' biggest liabilities for the last few months.
Shits himself with every set piece
@@ajs17897 fair enough, but his shots stopping is some of the best in the premier league
Been solid but as with a lot of the spurs players peoples minds were already made up about them after 10 games, he’s shown some weaknesses since then
@@benlane7282 i do have a bit of bias because i watched tottenham more during the first half of the season then the second half. fair point.
Is Antonee Robinson the best player on the American team?
Man said city would finish 3rd
He's an arsenal fanboy still crying over the loss..leave him be
-Gk 22 Raya
-Rb White 4
-Cb Gabriel 6
-Cb Saliba 2
-Lb Gvardiol 24
-Cdm Rice 41
-Cdm Rodri 16
-Cam KDB 17
-Rw Palmer 20
-Lw Olise 7
-St Watkins 11
So no one will talk about Olise? Odd. 18 Apps 15 G/A this Season.
Maybe it’s just my agenda but much as I love Jim I do feel a lot of City players were a bit overlooked given we will likely win the league and all, not even a mention for Walker as a candidate for RB cause we just take him for granted by now, likewise with Dias and imo Akanji at the back not necessarily saying they should be right in there but at least considered, plus I think there’s possibly been a bit of overlooking the fact that VVD hasn’t exactly come in clutch in the last month and a half or so when Liverpool should’ve been keeping pace with City and Arsenal as brilliant as he is overall
Nah, we've been ass defensively. None of those guys deserve to be in the TOTS. Shout out to Akanji tho, he's the only one that has been constantly good this season
@@space1734 tbf we still have the second best defence in the league this season comfortably above Liverpool in terms of goals conceded
Front 4 should’ve been:
Foden - Watkins - Saka/Salah
With Palmer at the 10, since hes closed out the season in that position
My team would’ve been
GK - Areola/Martinez
RCB - White
CB - van Dijk
LCB - Saliba (van de Ven for the hipsters choice)
CM - Rodri
CM - Rice
RW - Saka
RAM - Palmer
LAM - Fernandes
LW - Foden
ST - Watkins
Would be 3-2-4-1 shape (largely because I don’t think there’s been an outstanding LB this season apart from Udogie and I think there’s a couple midfielders who had better seasons than him)
Salah, Odegaard, Gabriel, Maddison, Romero and Son incredibly unfortunate to miss out.
You say van der ver and vvd but no gabriel lack of brain power. And bruno isn't top 20. You have him ahead of odergard qnd maddion and mac-allister
Shocking keeper picks
Fernandes?! 😅
@@therealhb1763lack of brain power is saying VVD is not back to his very best and absolutely dominate….. arsenal fans are so weak minded and can’t handle when their players aren’t luck for stupid things like this
@@jimmyg5102 not any stand outs this season.
Alisson been injured for a large part of it
I think ødegaard shouldn't be in this gear but wouldn't be surprised if it was his year next year 😊
Your first mistake was assuming that you had to put in Van Dijk. Gabriel is higher that Saliba this year. Your choice, but disagree. Arsenal has the best defense. Also, Odegaard is invaluable. Best attacking mid in PL.
Watkins not even on penalties!
To me van Dijk was only good later on in the season he definitely wasn't up to his normal standard this season and not just for Liverpool but for Netherlands who I have been supporting since 1988.
Don't think Gvardiol has been better across the whole season than Udogie, also while I think Cole's been amazing I do still think Saka is a better two way player and is just about ahead even if he is a bit knackered now. Not saying Cole's lazy but I don't think he's as good defensively and Saka is a useful piece in a stunning defensive side while also providing elite attacking quality. Also it's fudging it a bit but I do think Odegaard deserves to be in team so I'd put Foden at LW.
The hurdles James jumped over to force a showdown between Odegaard and Foden, but not Rodri and Rice are baffling
He's an arsenal fanboy still crying over the loss
Palmer is a cam not a rw id say
Vicario?
I could give two sh*** if people call me biased but leaving out Gabriel and Ødegaard is ridiculous. One has been part of the best defence in Europe and the other is the best attacking midfielder this season.
You're biased
As a Chelsea fan Gabriel has been far better for me then saliba, he picks up all the pieces
I agree with the team but my god it’s the narrowest team ever. 4 CBs 1 DM 1 CM 3 AMs & 1 ST. No one is getting chalk on their boots in that team
Gusto has been class all season, not just at the end. Not saying that he has to be picked here but that reasoning is miles off
Every time someone puts Van Dijk in over Gabriel, VDV, Branthwait or Tarkowski I just have to laugh, especially after the Merseyside derby and how DCL dominated him
Trossard and odegaard not even being discussed is criminal
True Trossard and Odegaard deserves to best eleven places.
Honestly, tarkowski has been far better than Branthwaite this season and anyone who watched us should know that. It’s just Branthwaite is left footed and is still so young that he kinda gets put above tarky when he doesn’t deserve it
No Gusto at right back? I expected better Mr JLA
Why stick to 4-3-3 when it’s fairly obvious that the team of the season has to be in 4-4-2 ? They did it last year too to accommodate both Kane and Haaland.
The TOTS has to be in 4-4-2 and the 6 attacking players really pick themselves up :
Rodri, Rice, Palmer, Foden, Watkins, Haaland.
The likes of Odegaard and Gordon have been really good… but nowhere near good enough to justify sticking to a 4-3-3 and pushing the nailed golden boot out of the TOTS.
for me, this is my tots for europe top 5 leagues this season:-
GK: Emi Martinez (Aston Villa), David Raya (loan to Arsenal), Yann Sommer (inter milan)
Defenders:-
RWB: Frimpong (Leverkusen)
RB: White (Arsenal), Pavard(inter Milan), Simakan (RB Leipzig)
CB: Saliba & Gabriel (both Arsenal), Dias (Man City), Van Dijk (Liverpool), Tah &Tapsoba & Kossonnou (three Leverkusen), Bastoni (inter milan)
LB: Gvardiol (Man City), Gutierrez(Girona)
LWB: Grimaldo(Leverkusen), Federico Di Marco (inter Milan)
Midfield:-
CDM: Rodri (Man City), Rice (Arsenal), Xhaka & Palacios (both Leverkusen)
CM: Amadou Onana (Everton), Mcginn & Boubacar Kamara(if no injury) (both Aston Villa), MacAlister (liverpool), Mainoo(Man United), Bellingham(Real Madrid), Zaine-Emery & Vitinha (both PSG)
CAM: Foden & De Bruyne, Bernardo Silva(all Man City), Szobozlai(Liverpool), Wirtz (Bayer Leverkusen)
Attackers:-
LW: Doku(Man City), Anthony Gordon (Newcastle), Vini Jr(Real Madrid)
ST: Haaland(Man City), Kane(Bayern Munich), Boniface (Leverkusen), Watkins(Asto Villa), Marcus Thuram (Inter Milan), Joshua Zirzkee (Bologna), Openda (RB Leipzig), Guirassy (Stuttgart)
RW: Sancho(loan to Dortmund), Hofmann(Bayer Leverkusen), Palmer(Chelsea), Zhergorva (Lille), Xavi Simons (RB Leipzig)
my starting 11 will be 3421 formation as follows:-
Raya
Pavard Dias Gabriel
Frimpong Palacios Xhaka Grimaldo
Sancho Wirtz
Kane/Boniface (if seriously got to pick, I pick Boniface over Kane)
When on the ball doing similar to what Xabi's Leverkusen is doing or box shape in the middle; when out of possession not too much aggressive press the backline, focus on the opposition midfield in 523 formation
Doku 😂😂😂
@@chocobomtom bro, I not joking. Apart from those 3 mentioned, other left wingers not really caught my eye for me tbh. I really impressed with Doku's improvement under Pep tbh. From being young prospect at Rennais FC to one of important players at Pep's Man City under just 1 year, that's insane
. Lunin
Kossounou | Saliba | Van Dijk
Frimpong | Rodri | Rice | Grimaldo
Wirtz | Bellingham

James big fan but honestly you're on fraud watch for that left wing. How can you put Cunha there who has started there once in his thirty two appearances, usually playing as a striker/10/second striker, and not Son? Son you can argue yes has had stints at striker but he's played left wing a whole hell of a lot more than Cunha, and is literally tied with Foden for goal involvements with 27 contributions. I don't get it. Not even an honourable mention in either left wing OR striker?
Insane that you would put foden left wing but hey anything to keep your arsenal fans happy yeah 👍
You've fallen into the trap thinking the greatest players make the greatest team. Fot example at centre half you pick the best pairing etc.
Trossard?
Not even a MENTION of Son???
He's an arsenal fanboy still crying over the loss..leave him be
Not picking Gabriel is a massive omission. Saliba has been brilliant in the last 5 games, but Gabriel has been better than him in the vast majority of games. Peole backing Saliba over Gabriel are just going off reputation, not observed performances.
They are both quality btw, if it was up to me they'd both be in
Fair point, tbh I think you have to have them both too, VVD is living a bit off rep these days
For me I’d go with a back 3 and pick:
Pickford
White
Saliba
Gabriel
Rodri
Rice
Palmer
Odegaard
Foden
Gordon
Watkins
used to think jla knew ball... not anymore
Watkins 32GA in 36 games
Haaland 32GA in 30 games

Watkins has been consistent all season, Haaland been out injured for parts and goes streaks without remotely any impact then puts 3-4 past a Wolves, Sheffield etc.
@@granth1238 ah right. Funny story. Haaland has 11 goal contributions from games with the big 6. Watkins has 8. Go figure
