Some Premier League players have had better seasons than others, it’s fair to say.
Superstars like Paul Pogba often get called out for bad displays, despite also offering up some of the best football at their clubs.

Paul Pogba has had a tough end to the season with Man United
The Frenchman has taken plenty of flak this week for his performance against Cardiff City where his failure to track Josh Murphy led to Nathaniel Mendez-Laing’s second goal in their 2-0 defeat.
Pogba, though, was also scintillating during the middle of the campaign scoring eight goals and laying on six during a nine-game streak, which saw Ole Gunnar Solskjaer get the manager’s job permanently.
Over the course of the season, this averages out at a decent year for the Frenchman with WhoScored.com giving him a rating of 7.31/10 – the best at Old Trafford.
So if he was the top player for Manchester United, who was the worst outfield player? Find out below.
