Wirtz while one club makes up half of worst XI of Premier League weekend

A WhoScored ratings selection highlighted a “worst XI” from Premier League matchday six, noting that half the squad came from a single club—Bournemouth—while Florian Wirtz was conspicuously absent despite criticism after his poor run in a 3-0 defeat to Manchester City. The lineup includes Djordie Petrovic (Bournemouth) in goal, followed by Adam Smith at right-back, Antonio Silva and Tyrone Mings in central defense, and Ryan Giles at left-back. Midfield features Rodrigo Bentancur (Tottenham Hotspur), Tyler Adams (Bournemouth), and Noah Okafor (Leeds United). David Brooks and Marcus Tavernier represent Bournemouth on the right and left wings, respectively. Bentancur was subbed on in the 66th minute and sent off in the 78th. The article points to limited defensive impact, duels, tackling, and crossing as recurring issues across the XI.
