Ranking the 5 Best Premier League squads for the 2025/26 season

The 2025 summer transfer window has been one of the busiest in history. Premier League clubs have spent £2.2 billion on players to reinforce their squads for this season. With that in mind, let’s look at where things stand now and the five best Premier League squads heading into the 2025-26 season.  5. Brighton The top four Premier League squads pretty much speak for themselves. The order is the only real thing up for debate. Number five, though, is tough. I’ve gone with Brighton because I think their squad is talented and also unique compared to other top-flight clubs.  For one, the Seagulls are incredibly young. Even with James Milner (39), Danny Welbeck (34), and Lewis Dunk (33) in the side, Brighton were the second-youngest team in the league last season, with an average age of 23...

Ranking the 10 best left-footed players in the Premier League for 2025/26 season

There's just something extra special about a left-footed footballer who can dazzle on the ball, and whether it's Lionel Messi or Diego Maradona, some of the world's most legendary and captivating players of all time have been left-footed wizards. In 2025/26, the Premier League boasts an enviable collection of left-footed stars, both in terms of well-established legends of the league, as well as young superstars with Ballon d'Or potential. There are even defenders who are a class above the rest on the ball with their left feet. So in honor of the southpaws, let's rank the top 10 left-footed players in the Premier League heading into the 2025/26 season. 10. Tottenham CB Micky van de Ven We begin with a center back because defenders are important, too. And Europa League-winning Totten...

Ranking the 5 best strikers still available on the 2025 summer transfer market

This year’s transfer window has been the summer of striker signings. Premier League clubs alone have spent over €600m on No. 9’s this transfer window, and they’re not even close to being finished. With that in mind, let’s look at the top five strikers still available on the transfer market. 5. Yoane Wissa If Yoane Wissa were a few years younger, I could’ve easily put him second or third on this list. “But didn’t you put 29-year-old Ollie Watkins higher than Wissa?” you might ask. Yes, I did, but that’s because Watkins has reached higher highs than Wissa more consistently. I also have questions about how Wissa will perform without Bryan Mbeumo by his side.  With all this being said, Wissa is a proven goalscorer, and those are hard to come by.  Wissa netted 20 goals in all competitio...

The top 10 Premier League transfers under £25M in the 2025 summer window

Liverpool, Chelsea, Manchester United, Arsenal, and all the other top clubs in the Premier League have made major headlines this summer transfer window by splashing serious cash on big names like Florian Wirtz, Bryan Mbeumo, Viktor Gyokeres, and Joao Pedro this summer transfer window.

So in the spirit of the moves that didn't get quite the same press, let's break down the best 10 transfers of the 2025 summer window that cost teams under 25 million pounds. And because free transfers are too obvious, let's only look at the moves that ca...

Ranking the 5 Best Striker Transfers of the 2025 Premier League Summer Window So Far

Pretty much every top club in the Premier League was after a new No. 9 this summer, as there's been a clear gap in the quality at the striker position in the English top flight - and in world football as a whole - when comparing the names of today to the strikers gracing the pitch 10-20 years ago.

Liam Delap to Chelsea Ipswich Town were a predictable disaster last season and totally overmatched for the Premier League, but they did have a couple of young gems, including Liam Delap at striker. ...

Every Premier League Club’s Best Bargain Signing Of All-Time

The 2025 summer transfer window is fully underway. While everyone is focusing on the players with massive fees like Florian Wirtz and Martin Zubimendi to Arsenal, I wanted to focus on bargain signings and underrated players. It’s too early to say who will be the bargains of this transfer window, but there have been tons of great examples in recent history. Let’s dive into the best bargain signings in Premier League history for every club. Arsenal – Kolo Touré Of all the Premier League clubs on this list, Arsenal might be the hardest to choose a top bargain signing for. And it’s not because there aren’t a lot of options to choose from —it’s because there are so many.

In a league defined by its physicality, speed, and tactical fluidity, the role of the midfielder is as crucial as ever. But it’s not just seasoned veterans running the show — a new generation of midfielders, 23 or younger, are making their mark with maturity well beyond their years.

Top 10 Premier League Wingers to Know in 2025

There may not be a more important position in the Premier League these days than the winger. The two best players in the entire league, after all, are wingers in Liverpool's Mohamed Salah and Arsenal's Bukayo Saka, who rank among the top wingers in the Premier League. Every single year, the title contenders in the Premier League are chock full of great winger options, whether it's been the tandem of Salah and Luis Diaz or Sadio Mane or the formidable Manchester City partnerships forged with Riyad Mahrez or Bernardo Silva taking up residence on the right-hand side. You need players out wide who can take defenders on, create chances, progress the ball, and score, too. There are so many different styles of winger, and while inverted goal-scorers like Mane and Salah ruled the roost for y...
