Most Used XI
I was listening to a podcast earlier that was talking about each Premier League teams Most Used XI this season. They defined it by the players with the most appearances across each position, I think. Ours was:
Areola
Wan-Bissaka Mavropanos Kilman Emerson
Alvarez Soucek
Bowen Paqueta Kudus
Antonio
It got me wondering how many minutes that actual XI has played together this season, so I've worked it out.
That side has played together a total of ZERO times this season.
In the process of working it out, though, I've also worked out what is our most common XI to have on the pitch at any one point. And, I have to say, the total minutes played together was astonishingly low.
The XI we've had on the pitch the most at any one time this season is:
Areola
Todibo Kilman Cresswell
Wan-Bissaka Alvarez Soucek Scarles
Bowen Kudus
The XI that started the Arsenal, Leicester and Newcastle games recently. And those three matches are the only times they've played together. 61' at Arsenal, 65' at Leicester and 64' at Newcastle, meaning our most used XI have only played together for 190 minutes all season.
Talk about an unsettled side.
