The vast majority of the players mentioned here\u00a0haven&#8217;t lived up to expectation.\u00a0The rest have just been awful and for that reason we want to put it out there as a discussion point. We&#8217;re not going claim to back up all our choices with stats just because a number of the candidates have clearly not performed to the best of their abilities. \u00a0I&#8217;m sure a few lucky ones have escaped our list. So let&#8217;s begin.<\/p>\n<h3>Wayne Rooney<\/h3>\n<p>Many are split on him making this list. In a season which has probably seen the worst Manchester United team in a nearly two decades, you&#8217;d expect Wayne Rooney to be the stand out player in the team. Sadly he&#8217;s only scored 7 goals and statistically been outperformed by Chris Smalling, Daley Blind, Juan Mata and Schneiderlin. A number of pundits and fans on our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/NetbetSport\/photos\/a.259053270944108.1073741828.258846374298131\/590766214439477\/?type=3&amp;theater\">Facebook<\/a> page have expressed leaving him out of the Euro16 England squad. The remainder of this year will be an interesting one for Mr Rooney.\u00a0At 30 is Rooney finished?<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-250 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/blnebeuk.serveur04.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/iconsport_bpi_130216_08_42.jpg\" alt=\"Wayne Rooney\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.netbet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/iconsport_bpi_130216_08_42.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.netbet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/iconsport_bpi_130216_08_42-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Theo Walcott<\/h3>\n<p>Where do we start. At 27 it is safe to say Theo never really lived up to expectation since he joined Arsenal. He has consistently been one of the weaker players both mentally and physically. He&#8217;s not someone you would turn to in a big game. He has been one of Arsenal&#8217;s weakest links and this\u00a0year has been no different. \u00a0He&#8217;s only scored 5 goals. Statistically you need four Theo Walcott&#8217;s to make one Mesut Ozil. Hopefully Arsenal sell him this season.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-251\" src=\"http:\/\/blnebeuk.serveur04.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/iconsport_25831139.jpg\" alt=\"Arsenal Training - London Colney\" width=\"700\" height=\"494\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.netbet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/iconsport_25831139.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.netbet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/iconsport_25831139-300x212.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Eliaquim Mangala<\/h3>\n<p>\u00a331.8 million to sit on the bench!

Even Wilfried Bony is rated higher for the season. \u00a0There&#8217;s not much else to say is there really.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-252\" src=\"http:\/\/blnebeuk.serveur04.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/iconsport_24918826.jpg\" alt=\"Eliaquim Mangala\" width=\"700\" height=\"463\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.netbet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/iconsport_24918826.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.netbet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/iconsport_24918826-300x198.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Radame Falcao<\/h3>\n<p>Does his inclusion even count! Radame Falcao was last seen in Manchester, please call 090 39039 930. The 30 year old has been missing for the whole season. Please return to Chelsea lost property.

That is exactly what happened to Gabby Agbonlahor. He used to be quick, skillful and full of promise. Only thing he&#8217;s full of now is donner kebabs.\u00a0It will be hard for him to find a club next season unless Villa decide to keep him. Ironically he wasn&#8217;t even the worst player in the team, however his attitude and behaviour off the pitch didn&#8217;t help.\u00a0The fans don&#8217;t want to see you smoking shisha and messing around with laughing gas in Dubai. No coming back from this surely.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-254\" src=\"http:\/\/blnebeuk.serveur04.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/iconsport_bpi_131114_10_06_1.jpg\" alt=\"Gabby Agbonlahor\" width=\"700\" height=\"502\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.netbet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/iconsport_bpi_131114_10_06_1.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.netbet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/iconsport_bpi_131114_10_06_1-300x215.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Joleon Lescott<\/h3>\n<p>Joleon Lescott is a have decent defender who has played for Everton\u00a0and Manchester City. Perhaps he was in the wrong place at the wrong time. That&#8217;s not an excuse for a captain. Another player who was distracted off the pitch with flashy cars rather than concentrating on the job at hand. At 33 it will be though for him to redeem himself.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-255\" src=\"http:\/\/blnebeuk.serveur04.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/iconsport_spi_120116_08_18.jpg\" alt=\"Joleon Lescott\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.netbet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/iconsport_spi_120116_08_18.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.netbet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/iconsport_spi_120116_08_18-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Jack Wilshere<\/h3>\n<p>To be fair to Jack he has only played two games all season and he&#8217;s been injured for most of that. In his absence, younger players such as Dele Alli and Ross Barkley have shown why Wilshere may not even make the England squad. \u00a0There is no denying his ability, it all comes to back attitude and focus. Perhaps Wenger is to blame for managing his players poorly.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-256\" src=\"http:\/\/blnebeuk.serveur04.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/iconsport_26272202.jpg\" alt=\"Jack Wilshere\" width=\"700\" height=\"458\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.netbet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/iconsport_26272202.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.netbet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/iconsport_26272202-300x196.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Bastian Schweinsteiger<\/h3>\n<p>On paper this looks like a good move. Experienced player who&#8217;s won it all comes to one the biggest clubs in the world. If anything he&#8217;s been a hindrance to Manchester United. Juan Mata has easily shown him up. Wouldn&#8217;t be surprised if he leaves at the end of the season. A shame really as there was much potential. Especially linking up with Wayne Rooney.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-257\" src=\"http:\/\/blnebeuk.serveur04.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/iconsport_bpi_211115_05_16.jpg\" alt=\"Bastian Schweinsteiger\" width=\"700\" height=\"525\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.netbet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/iconsport_bpi_211115_05_16.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.netbet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/iconsport_bpi_211115_05_16-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Per Mertesacker<\/h3>\n<p>Believe it or not Per is statistically Arsenal&#8217;s 8th best player. That doesn&#8217;t excuse his poor performances in big games. His lack of pace and strength against the big teams is embarrassing. He&#8217;s no Tony Adams now!

Still being paid by Tottenham (we think). What were Crystal Palace thinking. The guy has run out of goals and passion. We honestly thought he was retired.

Since moving from Manchester United Wes Brown has gone unnoticed at Sunderland.\u00a0Looks like this could be his last season. Apparently he&#8217;s made 6 appearances this season with a rating of -10. Time to call it a day really. He could&#8217;ve picked up a few tips off John O&#8217;Shea, who isn&#8217;t doing to bad.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-261\" src=\"http:\/\/blnebeuk.serveur04.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/iconsport_bpi_170115_09_80.jpg\" alt=\"Wes Brown\" width=\"700\" height=\"547\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.netbet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/iconsport_bpi_170115_09_80.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.netbet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/iconsport_bpi_170115_09_80-300x234.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Martin Demichelis<\/h3>\n<p>He&#8217;ll be remembered for three things this season.
