According to the average score from 2024 matches, Whoscored selected a squad of 11 players with the best performance.
Manchester United has a varied performance but nevertheless contributes two players: goalkeeper Andre Onana (7.11 points) and striker Rasmus Hojlund (7.97 points).
After 14 consecutive Premier League defeats, Hojlund ended 2023 with a crucial goal that helped Man United upset Aston Villa 3-2. Emiliano Martinez’s goal kick set off a string of great performances for the young Danish star in early 2024.
Hojlund scored six goals and assisted twice in his previous five outings before being injured due to overload. The former Atalanta star’s goals helped the “Red Devils” achieve four victories and one tie against Tottenham. Hojlund has recovered from his injury and is ready to join the Old Trafford team in their quest for fifth place in the Premier League, with the hope of earning a “ticket” to the Champions League the following season.
Meanwhile, Onana is in excellent shape in 2024. The Cameroonian international has improved his reflexes while maintaining his talents in quietly handling the ball with his feet. In addition to his saves, Onana continued to impress fans by making accurate long passes like a midfielder.
The victory over Luton earned Onana its highest score of 2024 (8.64). Onana has the highest save success rate in the Premier League this season, with 74%. In addition, the Man United goalie is among the stars with the most clean sheets in the tournament (8 games).
Arsenal has the most players in the best squad of 2024 (Gabriel, Martin Odegaard, and Bukayo Saka). This is an appropriate reward for coach Mikel Arteta and his team’s consistent performance this season.
Meanwhile, defending champion Manchester City honored two players: Phil Foden and Rodri. Foden’s recent spectacular play has made him a vital member of the “Cityzens” squad.
