I think this is quite an accurate reflection of his form

How good was our first-choice midfield when they played together…
Partey was absolutely unplayable at times but Odegaard was consistently good.
Looking at that fixture list, We could have really done with Partey being available throughout the season. Partey missed 3 big chunks of the season.
A couple of hiccups away from home
Dominant at home
Xhaka becomes a better player with those two around. This is him when Partey or Odegaard are not there
Never an >8 rated player on his own.
How good were Partey & Odegaard
No outliers in home & away for either.

Great analysis 
We need John Jacob to be fitter than ever next season. He should play all of our 38 league games.

As per the end-of-season rating, Saka is our player of the season with 7.89 ratings.
0.45 points ahead of next best Odegaard(7.44)
This is down to Saka performing better than our expectations, especially with 12 goals & 7 assists to show for it. He is also just 20.
However, Saka is still a professional footballer and should be ranked accordingly
Removing sub appearances, Saka averages a 6.03 rating
At home
In away matches
Saka needs to convert those 4/5 rated matches into 6/7 to become a top player.
Ben White for Player of the season?
Ben White has been more consistent with an average rating of 6.5. (first match not considered)
But then again Saka plays in a position which is difficult to be consistent in.

And that’s why he’s the first name on the sheet for Artera.
