English Premier League's most expensive XI based on transfer market values

Liverpool's Luis Suarez's market value today is £45.7 million

Interestingly, if we remove the top 7 teams from the equation, the costliest formations are as follows:

4-4-2 and 4-4-2 diamond formations

4-4-2 and 4-4-2 diamond formations

4-2-3-1 and 4-3-3 formations

4-2-3-1 and 4-3-3 formations

Just like the previous formations, defense remains the same here as well, with Stoke City man Asmir Begovic as the goal keeper. He is valued at £8.8 million.

Highly rated Southampton left-back Luke Shaw makes it to the teams. His market value today is £9.7 million. Also, Luke Shaw’s teammate Dejan Lovren has done enough this season to be included in the side with a market value of £10.5 million. Sunderland defender Ryan Shawcross is rated at £7.9 million. Newcastle’s Mathieu Debuchy takes the right-back spot at the current market value of £8.8 million.

Midfield is dominated by Newcastle players as three players make it to all the four formations. Yoan Gouffran, Yohan Cabaye and Hatem Ben Arfa are valued at £7.9 million, £17.5 million and £10.5 million respectively.

Cabaye, thanks to his impressive run this season, remains the costliest among all the players here.

Another Southampton player Victor Wanyama makes it to the teams. He is featured in three out of four teams who is valued at £12.3 million.

One of the best players from last season, Michu might have been absent from the playing eleven for Swansea City lately, but he is valued at £10.5 million. He makes it to three formations out of four.

Liverpool flop Andy Carroll whose transfer fees was £35 million two seasons back finds himself in two out of four teams. The West Ham player £14 million today.

Highly rated Aston Villa striker Christian Benteke makes it to all the four formations. He is valued at £15.8 million.

As you can see, 4-4-2 formation is the costliest at £125 million in total.
