Fans of the Premier League will undoubtedly remember this season for a long time. This Premier League season has presented impartiality and unbiasedness with some new front runners in West Ham and Everton, whereas Liverpool has stalled in the last months after lingering in the summit and are being confronted by a serious threat of dropping the Champions League qualification.
Even though there’s still a very long way to go to declare or give out conclusively in the Premier League season, it is wise to consider the performances of the players. In particular, those who sparked hope in the hearts of fans but have buttered up to deceive.
For a little help, here are some of the worst transfers of Premier League 2020-2021. Take a read!
Timo Werner
Timo Werner was a sensation and spectacle in the Bundesliga, there is no disagreeing with that and this was precisely what was predicted of him in the Premier League. Timo Werner was high-scoring throughout his time at RasenBallsport Leipzig.
In fact, Tim scored at least 100 goals in just 4 years and more or less 150 appearances. Last year in the Bundesliga, Timo Werner was just behind Robert Lewandowski with at most 30 goals.
Timo Werner can serve as a winger because he is elusive, nimbler, and can drop down to connect with the midfield. However, this Premier League season has been a season to forget. Timo Werner has just scored 5 goals in 23 appearances.
What’s more, Timo Werner has usually been ignored in favour of Tammy Abraham or Olivier Giroud. Moreover, experiments with Werner’s playing position did not help as well, with the shortage of tactical intellect.
Even so, with the arrival of Thomas Tuchel, a German coach, who likes the playing style of Timo Werner, there’s still hope that he can boost his scores. In time, perhaps you can bet on his team via betting sites like Bookmakers.
Rhian Brewster
At the age of 18, Rhian Brewster was a winner in the Champions League with Liverpool. Additionally, Rhian Brewster was part of the under-17 team of England that won the 2017 under-17 FIFA World Cup in India together with Phil Foden, current Premier League start.
Brewster’s performances included scoring three goals in a single game during the USA versus Brazil game, as well as the opening goal in a match versus Spain in the finals. Liverpool’s coach highly regarded Rhian Brewster.
However, it was not enough to offer him a lengthened run in the Liverpool team. Brewster was not given enough opportunities at Liverpool in favor of Mane, Firmino, and Salah. Then last season, Brewster signed with Sheffield United with a huge fee of £23.5 million.
In 20 appearances in the season, Rhian Brewster scored no goals. That said, Sheffield United is yet to find out and grasp returns on their investment. Even so, Brewster is still very young and thus we can look forward to him in the coming years.
Kai Havertz
Initially, Kai Havertz was deemed as an amazing talent in the Bundesliga. In fact, he was dubbed as the player who can, for the most part, do everything. Havertz had at least 100 appearances in the Bundesliga, breaking the record sustained by Timo Werner.
Kai Havertz can play as a central midfielder and an attacking midfielder because he is a two-footed, technically gifted player. Also, Kai proved to be a high-scoring player last season for Bayer Leverkusen.
Due to the extravagant publicity around him, Kai Havertz signed into the Premier League with £71 million. Unfortunately, things have not gone in a good way in spite of scoring three straight goals in one game in the EFL cup, Kai Havertz spends more time on the bench than in the field.
Additionally, the expensive midfielder was recently diagnosed with COVID-19 during the time when Havertz was starting to gain more field time. However, most recently Kai Havertz seems behind in the League.
One of the biggest failures of Lampard is not finding the best position for Havertz’s abilities.
Takeaway
The Premier League season has been a mostly crowd-free and fraught event, with the pandemic still happening. Thus, producing a tight and competitive race between the different teams. Even with the tight race, some players have failed to make a significant impression. Football players who are expected so much of yet just disappoint the hearts of the people. Some of the disappointing players are listed in this post.
