Top 10 Premiership newcomers

Manchester United's Memphis Depay is
at No 1, having secured a rating of 7.92
for his impressive season with PSV
Eindhoven in 2014/15, and you can see
the full list below.
10. Jose Holebas (Watford) 7.27
A seasoned Greece international who
has racked up plenty of European
experience with Olympiakos and latterly
Roma, Holebas was the man to keep
Ashley Cole on the sidelines at the
Stadio Olimpico last season. The 31-
year old was certainly deserving of his
starting berth, earning a rating of 7.27
courtesy of averages of 2.5 tackles and
2.4 interceptions per game, and the left-
back spot in WhoScored.com's Serie A
team of the season in the process.
9. Franck Tabanou (Swansea) 7.33
The second of three left-backs in the
top 10 here, Tabanou arrives at
Swansea on the back of a superb
season with Saint Etienne. Part of a
backline that shipped the second
fewest goals in Ligue 1 last season
(30), the 26-year old was also a real
threat in advanced positions, delivering
0.8 accurate crosses per game and
registering five assists for a rating of
7.33.
8. Idrissa Gueye (Aston Villa) 7.41
Staying in Ligue 1, it's clear that Aston
Villa have been keeping tabs on players
across the pond this summer and
quickly identified Lille's Gueye as the
ideal replacement for Fabian Delph.
Formerly a ball-winning midfielder, the
Senegal international has developed
into an impressive box-to-box player,
scoring four goals last season while
maintaining averages of 3.1 tackles and
2.8 interceptions per game. A rating of
7.41 was enough to rank first of all Lille
players to make more than 15
appearances in 2014/15.
=6. Andre Ayew (Swansea) 7.42
The second Swansea arrival on the list,
highlighting an impressive summer to
date from the Welsh club, Ayew was
arguably the first real coup of the
window. A starter at each of the last two
World Cups, the Ghana international has
been a star in Ligue 1 since arriving at
Marseille in 2010, scoring 41 league
goals in four seasons. A WhoScored
rating of 7.42 last season was his
highest in France's top tier and at 25 he
is only likely to improve further.
=6. Bastian Schweinsteiger (Manchester
United) 7.42
Despite concerns over his overall
fitness, World Cup winner
Schweinsteiger certainly still proved his
worth to Bayern when available last
season, earning a rating of 7.42 over 20
Bundesliga appearances. With five
goals, four assists and an impressive
87.7 per cent pass accuracy, the
Germany international adds real quality
to the United midfield and can fulfil a
variety of roles in central areas.
5. Georginio Wijnaldum (Newcastle) 7.47
In desperate need to add goals to a
side that scored just 40 times last
season, Newcastle have secured the
services of Aleksandar Mitrovic and
Goerginio Wijnaldum. The latter offers a
real threat from midfield with intelligent
runs from deep, with the entirety of an
impressive 14-goal haul last season
coming from inside the box. At just 24,
the Dutch international captained PSV
to a comprehensive Eredivisie title
triumph, earning a rating of 7.47 from
WhoScored.com.
