Pascal Groß has been named the Premier League’s best-performing player after the opening 10 rounds of the season in a ranking compiled by journalists from The Athletic.
The Brighton midfielder tops the list after scoring four goals and providing four assists in 10 appearances. The 35-year-old German is ranked ahead of Arsenal midfielder Declan Rice.
Manchester City centre-forward Erling Haaland completes the top three.
The remaining places in the top 10 are occupied by Ezri Konsa, Evanilson, Martin Ødegaard, Nicolas Jackson, Luka Vuskovic, Bart Verbruggen and Gabriel.
The ranking comes as Arsenal lead the English top-flight table. Brighton are second, with Manchester City third.
Gross’ position reflects Brighton’s strong start to the campaign, with the midfielder contributing directly to eight goals across the club’s first 10 league matches. Rice is listed second, while Haaland is third despite being the highest-ranked forward in the selection.
