The alternative Premier League awards: Biggest overperformer? Fastest shot? Sweepiest goalkeeper?
New York TimesIt’s that time of year again. Manchester City are Premier League champions for the third season running, Erling Haaland has won the Golden Boot, the Premier League’s Player of the Season and the Football Writers’ Association Footballer of the Year, and Kevin De Bruyne has landed the Premier League Playmaker of the Season for the third time in six years. If not for a certain Norwegian powerhouse, Kane’s 30 goals this season would have been enough for him to win the Premier League golden boot in each of the past four seasons. While Nketiah has been limited to just nine starts in the Premier League during Gabriel Jesus’ absence, the 23-year-old will be looking for a better goal return next season at Arsenal. In total, Fulham’s Bernd Leno lands the award for most goals prevented having stopped nearly 12 goals more than he was expected to from the efforts he faced — helping Marco Silva’s side to one of their best Premier League campaigns in recent memory.
