A look at the best XI of this weekend’s Premier League stars, with Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur and Stoke City stars particularly shining on the final day of the season…
GK: Victor Valdes (Manchester United)
With some fine saves to keep it at 0-0, Victor Valdes had a good game for Manchester United in an otherwise lacklustre display from their team against relegated Hull City.
DR: Daryl Janmaat (Newcastle United)
An impressive attacking display from Daryl Janmaat, who gave Newcastle real purpose going forward as they escaped relegation on the final day.
DL: Nabil Bentaleb (Tottenham Hotspur)
In an unfamiliar role of left-back, Nabil Bentaleb shone as one of Tottenham’s best players in an impressive 1-0 away win over Everton.
DC: Eliaquim Mangala (Manchester City)
A strong end-of-season performance to perhaps offer a glimpse of next season, Eliaquim Mangala was solid for Manchester City against Southampton, and picked up an assist.
DC: Jan Vertonghen (Tottenham Hotspur)
Another strong Tottenham player in the hard-fought win at Everton, Jan Vertonghen was at his very best at centre-back for Spurs.
MC: Charlie Adam (Stoke City)
With a goal to cap a sensational display, Charlie Adam was on fire for Stoke against his old club Liverpool this weekend in a memorale 6-1 win.
MC: Santi Cazorla (Arsenal)
With two assists and another masterclass midfield display this season, Arsenal’s Santi Cazorla is narrowly in ahead of his team-mate Jack Wilshere.
AMR: Jon Walters (Stoke City)
With a goal and an all-round strong attacking performance, Jon Walters is another Stoke star who impressed in the thrashing of Liverpool this Sunday.
AML: Marko Arnautovic (Stoke City)
On the other flank, it’s another Stoke winger Marko Arnautovic who gets in, with two assists and a great attacking display to cause the Reds all sorts of problems.
FC: Mame Biram Diouf (Stoke City)
With two goals, one an absolute belter, Mame Biram Diouf is the fourth Stoke star to make this lineup as they ripped Liverpool apart in a shock result.
FC: Theo Walcott (Arsenal)
With a brilliantly taken hat-trick, Theo Walcott starred for Arsenal in a striker’s role as they beat West Bromwich Albion 4-1 to end the season on a high.
