Another Premier League season is almost complete and when it is all said and done, the inevitable period of reflection will occur.
Who scored the best goal? Which team was the worst? or who was each team’s best player?

Jorginho signed for Chelsea from Napoli
And thankfully, this is where we can help answer that final question to establish which club has reaped the benefits and got full value for their money.
A study by Sportsman.com has worked this out by dividing the players transfer fee as looking at statistics such as number of passes made, assists and goals scored.

20
The former Man City defender has featured just seven times this season
Chelsea
Best – Jorginho (£9,711 per minute, win, goal, assist, shot on target, pass, tackle, shot blocked, clearance, interception, cross and big chance created)

Liverpool
Best – Xherdan Shaqiri (£7,585 per minute, win, goal, assist, shot on target, pass, cross, big chance created)
While his absence in the last few weeks has been frustrating for both fans and players, Shaqiri at one point looked like being one of the signings of the season in the earlier phase of the campaign.
