Five most underrated players in the English Premier League

2- Mikel Arteta

He has seen the lights of Barcelona, Paris Saint-Germain and Rangers in his career, arguably among the most experienced players in the league; Arteta hasn’t had the lime light he deserves for the efforts he put in for Arsenal. Arteta came into the side from Everton and has played a role similar to that of Michael Carrick at Manchester United. Though he hasn’t been able to fill the gap left by Patrick Vieira, Arteta has been an important part of the team so far. The stats supports this as he averaged 2.4 interceptions and 4.6 tackles a match last season along with being the player with the most successful pass accuracy in the league. From an attacker at Everton to an holding midfielder at Arsenal, Arteta has evolved well as a footballer and is someone who is worth having in an team.
