How this page works. The squad roster reflects the 2026-27 season, showing each player under their current club. Player statistics in the details panel below (minutes played, goals, assists) are drawn from the 2025-26 season, regardless of which club the player represented at that time. If a player transferred during or after 2025-26, they appear here under their new club but their stats come from wherever they played last season. This gives you the most accurate picture of each player's recent form going into the new campaign.

Discipline & Suspensions

Yellow card accumulation and red card bans · Premier League

In the Premier League, five yellow cards before gameweek 19 triggers a one-match ban. A further five (ten total) before gameweek 32 earns another one-match ban, and fifteen at any point adds a further ban — thresholds reset after each ban is served. A straight red card carries an automatic three-match ban, rising to longer bans for violent conduct at the FA's discretion. Hover over a player's row to see which matches they picked up their cards in.

Momentum

Last 3 PL games avg vs season avg — shows whether the manager is giving a player more or fewer minutes lately

Competition
Position

The delta (↑↓) compares each player's average minutes in their last 3 Premier League appearances against their season-long average. A positive delta means the manager is turning to them more frequently or keeping them on longer lately — a useful early signal of changing roles before the stats catch up.
