Stars from Bournemouth, Manchester City and West Ham United all feature.

With the second international break now upon us, it seems a perfect time to assess the Premier League stats so far.
We have already taken a look at both the best and worst performing goalkeepers and the best and worst performing defenders so far this season.

That led us to analyse how the midfielders are faring as we discovered who have been dominating the stats up to this point.
So who has been at the other end of the spectrum and not faring so well in the statistics?

To make things fair, we only looked at the players who have amassed 90 minutes or more this season. Here is what we found out:
West Ham United’s Manuel Lanzini and Tottenham Hotspur’s Son Heung-min are the lowest scorers when it comes to tackles won, having failed to win any so far this season.
| Team | Won Tackle | Mins Played | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Manuel Lanzini | West Ham | 0 | 272 |
| Jonathan Leko | West Brom | 0 | 43 |
| Son Heung-Min | Tottenham | 0 | 359 |
A whole host of midfielders are yet to win an interception, including the likes of Everton’s Yannick Bolasie, West Bromwich Albion’s Craig Gardner and West Ham’s Gokhan Tore.
Bournemouth’s Dan Gosling and Hull City’s Shaun Maloney are bottom for ball recoveries with just four, closely followed by Arsenal’s Mohamed Elneny (5).
| Team | Accurate Pass | Mins Played | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Jefferson Montero | Swansea | 13 | 116 |
| James Morrison | West Brom | 17 | 32 |
| Craig Gardner | West Brom | 27 | 184 |
Swansea City’s Jefferson Montero has been the worst passer with a tally of just 13 accurate passes. Maloney meanwhile is the worst in the final third with just four successful passes to his name.
Middlesbrough’s Adam Clayton, Manchester City’s Fernando and Leicester City’s Andy King are bottom for key passes having failed to register one yet.
