Biggest FLOP At EVERY Premier League Team This Season

[@maxsimonis3470]

Deniz Undav was playing for a relegation fighting 3rd division team in Germany just 2 years ago, transferred to the 2nd Belgian division the following season. The fact alone that he is playing premier league and scoring is a miracle for him, hence why i would not include him as a flop as no one expected him to play a significant role for brighton yet.

[@xavimace9483]

As a Brighton fan, I would go with Robert Sanchez over Deniz Undav. Undav hasn't been great but it is his first season in a new league, and it hasn't helped him that Mitoma has hit the ground running given they both came in at the same time from USG. Sanchez however has lost his place to a 32-year-old Jason Steele, who was a laughing stock before this season thanks to his time at Sunderland. Whilst I think credit has to go to Steele for turning his career around, Sanchez has gone from a promising Spain-international GK, to losing his place in the team and making countless mistakes when he has been given his opportunities. He is also 25 now, so not really considered a young player. He just hasn't built on his development after breaking into the team in 2020

[@James-xt5rh]

Having sold Richarlison, then to sell Gordon on top of that and not get a replacement - the mind boggles. Sean Dyche has done a fantastic job to keep them up. What price Allardyce now? Dyche has had to play a similar way, concede as few goals as possible and hope to poach an occasional goal and win 1-0, because it was the only way Everton could conceivably get points.

Honestly, I think one of Leicester's major problems this season was that they had too many midfield options - Tielemans, Maddison, Barnes, Dewsbury-Hall, Ndidi, Soumare, Praet, Mendy, Albrighton... Even with Ndidi's quality, finding a consistent starting role in that mix had to be nigh impossible. And now I expect at least 4 of the first 5 names on that list to be gone next transfer window. What a disaster.

True. It's a bit sad to have to include players who have proved themselves and done really ell in the past but for some reason have just totally lost form. Fabinho, Ndidi and Sterling have all made vital contributions to their teams in the past. Hopefully they can all recover and show that form is temporary while class is permanent.

[@mrwabbit9576]

Damsgaard is a harsh call for brentdord. Hes been recovering from arthritis most of the season but at the tail end was crucial in wins over nottingham forest, man city and tottenham. Despite not registering goals or assists, it was his tackles and passes that led to game winning goals. Hes been used as a midfield destroyer rather than a creative player, that role belongs to jensen and Dasilva

[@chibifirestorm]

Mikkel Damsgaard for Brentford is a poor fit since it was known from the beginning, that he would be using most of this season to get back into fitness (and putting on some muscle), and not considered to be contesting for being regular first team starter this season (and even then he've actually mostly managed this in the tail-end of the season) Much more probable name for Brentford would be Keane Lewis-Potter

[@bens4602]

Lewis-Potter has struggled due to injuries far worse and also due to Thomas Frank being a very strange human being who’s developed a sheer grudge, far more unjustified than Damsgaard (who’s been awful every time he’s played unlike Lewis-Potter). Surely Schade is a shout if you’re all complaining about Damsgaard? Proving pace and vibes aren’t enough to make you a good footballer for months now.

I don't mean to pile on Neal Maupay but he never scored at Brighton while getting a ton of chances, so I've no idea why Everton signed him thinking that he'd score goals. Surely that's what Everton needed, was someone to put the ball in the net. Works hard? Yes. But strikers ultimately are judged on goals.

[@maciejbala477]

Everton don't think much when signing players lol. They dont do them in a clever way, just based on v i b e s. And yeah, Maupay has gotten a lot of chances so he scored some at Brighton, even though his conversion rate has been poor and everyone was saying Brighton need someone better, but he has gotten a fair amount of goals because of that, so Everton, being the shambles that they are, thought he was actually good. For me he's championship standard

[@maciejbala477]

That Kehrer bit was brutal, but also something I totally agree with. He's always seemed very underwhelming during the bunch of games I watched him at PSG, with dumb back passes and generally showing nothing useful. I didn't think he'd be a good signing for West Ham either, but to be fair he'd be on the bench if they had their full team (although I think Aguerd has been bad too)

Thank you for not labelling Antony as a flop. There are too much slander on him right now (I used the word “slander”, not “criticism” because it came from bad faith) by the British media just because of his price tag and his spinning but I think he’s improving every game and his end product might be low thanks to the teammates like Martial and Weghorst who can’t score to save their lives. Hell, just look at Bruno Fernandes. 108 chances created. Highest in the league. And how many assists he made from those chances? EIGHT! That’s how abysmal United attack really is.

I disagree with Richarlison. He’s been disappointing but he was never signed as a starter, he’s just a very expensive part of the Kane backup curse.

[@SirEEf13]

For Chelsea I think that Sterling is a good shout, given how it feels like the only thing he is still capable of doing is run very fast and pass sideways. However considering the awful season we are having I think there are candidates better suited for this. Aubameyang is already worse of a flop simply because he managed to play such an unimportant role in this team, that he get un-registered for the CL and it's not unlikely that Chelsea will let him go for free in the summer, despite him still having a contract. If Broja wouldn't have injured himself so badly I think it's safe to say that Auba wouldn't have featured more than 10mins collectively in all games played in 2023 so far. Without Broja, Aubameyang remains the only senior striker in the squad, yet he is unsuccessful to get past Havertz, Sterling or whoever else is put there in the starting lineup. The only thing somewhat rescuing him here is that he was cheap. He would be my flop of the season.
