My 2022/2023 Premier League Team of the season
Goalkeeper
Aaron Ramsdale made a lot of crucial saves throughout the season and has made 13 clean sheets this season. Ramsdale importance was one of the reasons why Arsenal are going to finish second in 2022/2023 Premier League season. Alisson Becker kept Liverpool in several games this season with incredible saves and this is why Liverpool still had a chance of finishing fourth until the final week of the season. Alisson won two Man of the Match awards for extraordinary performances in 2022/2023 Premier League season. David De Gea won the Golden Glove award for the most clean sheets with 17 clean sheets. De Gea is a excellent shot stopper but is poor with the ball at his feet which was noticeable in Manchester United’s quarter-final Europa League defeat against Sevilla.
They are my top three goalkeepers from this season but my top goalkeeper is Alisson from Liverpool.
Centre- defenders
William Saliba was outstanding for Arsenal and his injury was one of the reasons why The Gunners didn’t win the title. Saliba chipped in with a couple of Premier League goals this season which includes scoring the winner against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. Lisandro Martinez got a welcome to the Premier League in Man United’s second game of the season as they were battered against Brentford. Martinez didn’t let his lack of height affect him as he loves a tackle and never gives up without a fight. Martinez has been Man United’s best player this season in my opinion and has been missed since he got injured against Sevilla. Title winning Manchester City had two strong defenders in John Stones and Ruben Diaz but Stones has rejuvenated himself with playing as an extra midfielder.
I have decided to pick John Stones and Lisandro Martinez as my centre-defenders.
Full-backs
Kieran Trippier was influential in Newcastle finishing in the Champions League as he has completed an average of 54 passes per game and has achieved six assists. Trippier has been excellent in the Premier League especially since he signed for Newcastle from Atletico Madrid in 2022. Rico Henry is a resilient defender and has been massive as Brentford have achieved 11 clean sheets. Trent-Alexander Arnold has taken a lot of stick for his lack of defending but he is world class especially with his accuracy of crosses and passes. Trent finished the season playing in a advanced midfield role and definitely has the quality to play in that position. Luke Shaw has ben outstanding this season particularly playing as an orthodox centre-half.
My full backs are Kieran Trippier and Rico Henry.
Midfielders
Moises Caicedo was very impressive this season which helped Brighton achieve the biggest ever finish in the Premier League. Rodri is a master in making things tick in midfield for Man City and his steady performances were excellent in winning the title for a third season in a row. Martin Odegaard is a footballer that I love watching his range of goals this season were very important in Arsenal finishing second especially the outstanding goal that the Norwegian scored against Newcastle. Bruno Fernandes scored seven goals and achieved eight assists which helped Man United finish inside the top four. Bruno Guimaraes has been a great signing for Newcastle as he only cost of €50 million and scored four goals in 2022/2023 Premier League. Kevin De Bruyne continues to turn up in the big games as he scored two crucial goals which helped Man City achieve success against Arsenal.
My three midfielders are Moises Caicedo, Kevin De Bruyne and Martin Odegaard.
Wingers
Bukayo Saka is one of the best wingers in the Premier League as he scored 13 goals. Saka is a nightmare for defenders especially with his lighting pace. Marcus Rashford brought his game to another level this season under Erik Ten Hag as he scored 17 Premier League goals. Bernardo Silva plays on the right for Man City and he is irreplaceable in my opinion. Silva is the first name on the team sheet and is also capable of scoring big goals as he recently scored twice against Real Madrid in the Champions League semi-final. Mo Salah continued to set exceptional standards as he has now scored 186 goals since he joined Liverpool in 2017. Salah has scored 19 goals in 2022/2023 Premier League which is amazing considering Liverpool had a poor season.
It's a tough decision but my wingers are Bernardo Silva and Mo Salah
Striker
Harry Kane has been incredible this season considering Tottenham Hotspur have been terrible as he has scored 28 goals. Kane is currently on 211 Premier League goals and will break Alan Shearer record of 260 if he stays fit over the next couple of seasons. Erling Haaland has been unbelievable this season and has been the difference in Man City reaching the Champions League final. Haaland has scored all sorts of goals this season as he has scored 36 goals in 2022/2023 Premier League season.
My striker is Harry Kane.
That is my team.
