5 top stars who have flopped in the Premier League this season

#1 Henrikh Mkhitaryan (Manchester United)

The Armenian’s inclusion in this list might be slightly surprising since he has had only 4 Premier League appearances, but Mkhitaryan has not had a good time at Old Trafford with Jose Mourinho not trusting the Armenian during key matches.

The 27-year-old was in impressive form for Dortmund last season, and his move to United for a fee of £27 million was labelled as one of the best deals of the summer. However, the move has not gone according to plan with Mourinho speaking about Mkhitaryan’s performances:

“He is trying. Obviously, he is not happy, but he is transforming his frustration in a good way, which is to close the mouth, work hard and try to adapt. He needs less pressure and better conditions for him to express his qualities.”

Manchester United fans will be hoping that the Armenian international soon shows what he is capable of.

Honourable mentions: Anthony Martial (Manchester United), Vincent Janssen (Tottenham).
