We all love a creative footballer, don’t we? The ones that you know that can flip a switch and get you off of your seat at any moment.
The Premier League is full of them. Philippe Coutinho for Aston Villa, Ruben Neves for Wolves, Son Heung-min for Tottenham Hotspur - you get the point.
It’s why it’s the best league in the world - because there’s more creative players than anywhere else.
But who were the ones leading the way for their teams throughout the 2021/22 campaign?
With thanks to BetVictor - we now know the answer.
Using data scouting, every footballer playing in the Premier League has been rated by their performance over the course of the year. It takes into account everything from chance creation, how far a player progresses with the ball in enemy territory and the ‘ability to break opposition lines.’
For the case of fairness, only those that have played 900 minutes or more for their club have been rated, too.
We’ve compiled a list of each player that topped the list for their respective team and included their creator rating (in brackets) and their overall Premier League ranking.
