Franck Kessie at 50 seems really low

10-15 spots higher about. Around Zielinski (34th).

I scoffed at Sterling for 7 as well.

Sterling has perhaps been a top 10 outfield player in the EPL this season. He's been fantstic.

No Igor Bezdenezhnykh is another glaring omission

Is Ante Coric on the list?

ETA: I can't pull it up at the moment.

Agreed. Because of the club he plays for and all the hype, he's easily one of the most unfairly criticized players in the world. Always nitpicked to death. There are flaws in his game but he really is a fantastic young player.

The amount of flack that Sterling and Stones receive is beyond insane.

ETA: Good to see the article at least mentions this in the write up on Sterling:

He's criticised so much that it has almost become the popular mindset. Forget what you read - the boy is brilliant.

Stop it

He was great the first month of the season. From October to early February he was average at best.


The last month he's got into form. He played much better in Europe than in the league

Bellerin at #10?? It may just be me, but I have never been overly impressed watching him... and Iwobi being rated higher than players like Naby Keita, Marquinhos, etc is laughable...

Not to pick on just Arsenal players, but those just jumped out at me...

You would criticize any DM list without even looking. It is just a fun discussion. It is not the U23 gospel
