Posted by

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.
