For the final time this season, we have the FotMob Team of the Week. There are a few surprises in the XI but that’s because we had a few surprise results to round off the 2024/25 campaign.
By Sam McGuire
Goalkeeper: Jordan Pickford
The Everton shot-stopper loves playing against Newcastle United. Pickford made six saves at St James’ Park, facing efforts with an Expected Goals on Target value of 2.16 on his way to a clean sheet as the Toffees beat the Magpies 1-0 to end their season on a high.
Right-Back: Ben White
The Arsenal full-back has been missed this season. Limited to just 17 matches due to injury, White was in fine form against Southampton as the Gunners recorded a 2-1 win over the relegated side. The 27-year-old completed 89% of his passes, he created two chances, claimed an assist, and won 100% of his tackles at St Mary’s.
Centre-Back: Illia Zabarnyi
The Bournemouth centre-back claimed his first assist of the season as the Cherries best Leicester City to round off an impressive season. The 22-year-old also completed 100% of his attempted dribbles, found a teammate with 83% of his attempted passes and won 100% of his tackles as well as 83% of his aerial duels.
Centre-Back: Levi Colwill
Colwill scored the goal to secure Champions League football for Chelsea. The 22-year-old netted the winner against Nottingham Forest, at the City Ground, as the Blues secured fourth spot in the Premier League. The England international also completed 89% of his passes and won 100% of his aerial duels.
Left-Back: Tyrick Mitchell
Mitchell assisted Ismaïla Sarr as Crystal Palace drew against Liverpool at Anfield. The left wing back was the star performer on the day, claiming a FotMob rating of 8.5. To go along with his assist, he completed two of his three dribbles, attempted three tackles and involved himself in 12 duels, winning eight.
Midfield: Bruno Fernandes
Just days after saying he could well leave Manchester United this summer, Fernandes impressed against Aston Villa. He completed the most passes (86), he had a pass success rate of 92%, created three chances, one big chance and finished with an assist. The Portugal playmaker also had five shots, attempted five tackles and was involved in 15 duels.
Midfield: İlkay Gündoğan
With his first goal of the season, Gündoğan put Manchester City on their way against Fulham at Craven Cottage. The win for Pep Guardiola‘s side ensured they finished third in the Premier League. Gündoğan created the most chances (six), was the most fouled player (four), completed 88% of his attempted passes and won a penalty late on. The Germany international was the main man.
Midfield: João Gomes
Gomes ran the show for Wolves in the 1-1 draw with Brentford. The 24-year-old made the most tackles (seven), was the most fouled player (three), won the most duels (16), created one chance, attempted five dribbles with a 60% success rate. That FotMob rating of 8.3 was well deserved.
Attack: Jarrod Bowen
It is becoming the norm now, but Bowen was incredible for West Ham United in their 3-1 win over Ipswich Town. The versatile forward scored and assisted against the Tractor Boys, creating two chances and having four shots. It wasn’t a one-man show but he did carry the forward line for Graham Potter‘s side.
Attack: Jack Hinshelwood
Deployed in attack by Brighton, Hinshelwood scored twice against Tottenham as the Seagulls recorded a 4-1 win. The versatile midfielder completed 83% of his passes, won 100% of his tackles, 75% of his ground duels, and 50% of his aerial duels. He did a bit of everything for Brighton and deservedly claimed a 9.1 FotMob rating.
Attack: Antoine Semenyo
The in-demand forward finished the campaign with 11 goals following his double against Leicester. Semenyo was a menace throughout, attempting four shots, three dribbles and involving himself in nine ground duels as a left sided attacker. If he is to move this summer, it is a good final showing for the Cherries.
