United most impressed- Evans
Least Impressed- Park
Arsenal - RVP has exceeded my expectations. Not in terms of his goals, but the lack of injuries. Arteta has been the best of the newcomers, for certain. Also been really impressed with Koscielny and Rosicky's improvement this season.
Disappointments probably lie with Ramsey really. More because of the high expectations of him before his leg break, and he's found it difficult to reach that kind of form since his return. But I fancy of chances of getting better next season, he's certainly young enough.
Walcott hasn't been that big a disappointment. I mean we all know he is never going to be consistent or a top player but he has made some massive contributions this season nonetheless. Most disappointing player for me would be Ramsey with Gervinho not far behind.

Newcastle - Cabaye. He has came in and hit the ground running and we all thought we were seeing the best of him during the first few months of the season. However his recent form makes me think he's got a lot more to give to this team and this league. Brilliant player and a beautiful man.
Dan Gosling - Like Kevin Nolan without the goals - can't pass or tackle and cba to run.
Most impressed...Carrick or Evans
Least impressed... Giggs or Anderson (despite his injury problems)

Arsenal flops: Gervinho, Ramsey, Chamakh, Diaby
Arsenal tops: RVP of course, Rosicky, Arteta, Kossy
not in particular order.
True i forgot about Gervinho , he was so good at Lilles . Since he came back from African cup of nation he has been absent .
Impressed = Arteta, Kos and Rosicky
Disappointed - Ramsey, Walcott (both have the potential and seem OK at times but these 2 can be so much better)
Most impressive: De Gea - purely on the basis of how well he's dealt with all the criticim he recieved earlier in the season. He's been fantastic bar a few mistakes at the start of the season.
Least impressive: Nani - was magnificent last season, and carried that into the start of this one, however, I thought he would go on to be consistently playing to a level we know he's capable of, but he seems to have been less consistent than last year.
These are based on my initial expectations of them at the start of the season.
Arsenal:
Impressed - Arteta
Disappointed - Ramsey
Chelsea:
Impressed - Mata
Disappointed - Torres
Liverpool:
Impressed - Lucas
Disappointed - Adam [I know people will say Carroll, but I had a feeling he'll flop, but thought Adam would have gone on to be a good buy for them]
Manchester City:
Impressed - Kompany
Disappointed - Dzeko [Expected a big season from him]
Manchester United:
Impressed: Carrick
Disappointed: Anderson - Thought he'd have a big season, but hampered by injuries.
United:
Most impressed: Has to be Evans. When Vidic was ruled out for the season I thought we would struggle, but since he's started regularly with Rio, he's been amazing.
Least impressed: Evra, for me he's still a good player but the amount of times he has just strolled back when we are under pressure realy does annoy me.
Arsenal:
Most: Koscielney(sp?) he's been a rock at the back even when you're defence was falling apart (injuries).
Least: Ramsey, he looked impressive last year, this year he looks terrible.
City: Actually agree with the OP tbh.
Chelsea:
Most: Mata, when he came in I didn't expect much, but he's been amazing.
Least: Got to be Torres hasn't it?
Newcastle:
Most: Cisse. I doubt many people had heard of him in december, now, he's scoring every game.
Least: To be honest I couldn't really pick one.
Spurs:
Most: Friedel, we all knew he was a good keeper, but at the age of 40 I didn't think he would be this good (saying that VDS was better at that age).
Least: Modric, last season imo he was playing amazing, I had expected him to be just as good this year, however he's been distinctly average tbh.
Liverpool:
Most: Enrique was probably the only buy in the summer that has gone down well and he's one of the best LB's in the league.
Lucas before he got injured was playing very well aswell.
Least: Everyone else I guess.
Arsenal:
Impressed - mikel, rosicky, kossy, RVP.
Flopped - park: Was expecting more from him than 2 league appearances. Cham, diaby: makes a return after 3 months out and 15 mins later he's on the sideline.
United -
Impressed: evans, carrick, Valencia, scholes, lindegaard,
Unimpressed: rafael, jones, evra, Hernandez, welbeck,
young,
Chelsea
Imp - mata, Ramirez, ivan, luiz
Un imp - nando, sturridge, bossy, mikel, cole, malouda, Frank, avb
City
Imp- aguero, Komp, lescott, hart, Richards, yaya, zabaleta
Un - nasri, silva, kolarov,

I do not see the point why you have to choose Diaby for your flop list, a guy who never played a game apart from 30 minutes against Chelsea and 10 minutes against Liverpool.
De Gea has impressed me more than anyone up to this point of the season. At the start of it, he was questioned as to whether he'd be able to cope with the physicality of the PL, and playing at such a big club. Then the first half of the season, he made errors in important games, gave away sloppy goals, dropped us a few points. By this point De Gea was getting bashed left right and centre by just about everyone from the media to the fans.
Since January though he has taken the criticism on the chin, got on with it, and IMO been one of the best keepers in the league since then. He's made countless world class saves (remember the save against Chelsea, the Mata strike?), and has kept us in games, winning us points.
He's improved more than anyone I've seen this season, so for me, he's been the most impressive.
De Gea

Welbeck?

What about Welbeck, a doh smiley doesn't explain anything, elaborate.
He is shiite. How about that for ya, ickhead?!
Sir Bubbly For the same reasons I put him as most impressive. He still has so much to improve on as well. I imagine Fergie will get him in the gym to bulk up, which will help people try to target him physically. Also, the better he gets at English will help even more as well - communication is so important for a keeper. Having Vidc back will give him more confidence as well.
Dubbed you are an idiot of the highest order. Calling him s h it is not an explanation . Can you elaborate ? Or most probably you cannot do that apart from saying another useless s h it .
He cannot dribble, he struggles with a simple 5 yard pass. Poor balance, poor acceleration, shocking technique and touch.
I've stated it numerous times. One game doesn't make him class.
To be fair, I don't think Dubbed actually rated any footballers in the world bar Messi.
However your multipe idiotic posts show you are an idiot
