Rashford leads the ‘worst’ Premier League XI of the season: one per club

Manchester United defender was solid 6/10 and Keane struggles with emotions

We have brought you the Premier League XI of the season and now it’s time for the ‘worst’ – constructed from WhoScored’s player ratings for those who have made 20 Premier League appearances or more and featured for over 1000 minutes, limited to one player per club for reasons of Norwich and Watford.
