Who made Opta's team of the season?
Statisticians Opta have come up with a Premier League team of the season based on data collected during the course of the campaign. Check out their XI below - and you can see Troy Deeney's team of the year here, too, with eight players the same. Four of Liverpool's title winners made Opta's team of the year [BBC] Matz Sels (Nottingham Forest) Matz Sels won his first Golden Glove with 13 clean sheets [Getty Images] Nottingham Forest qualified for European football for the first time since the 1995-96 campaign and a significant reason for that was the performance of their defence. Advertisement Goalkeeper Sels only kept one clean sheet in 16 games in 23-24 but this season he's been had 13, the joint most by a Forest goalkeeper in a Premier League season, level with Mark Crossley in 94-95. He also shared the accolade of the Premier League's Golden Glove award - the only other goalkeeper who could match his 13 clean sheets was Arsenal's David Raya. Sels made 120 saves - with only three goalkeepers making more - and enjoyed a save percentage of 72.1%, behind only Jordan Pickford among ever-present goalkeepers in 24-25. He also prevented 4.3 goals according to Opta's xGoT (expected goals on target) goalkeeping model. Trent Alexander-Arnold (Liverpool) In his final season at Liverpool before a likely move to Real Madrid, Alexander-Arnold signed off as a Premier League champion. He contributed to nine of Liverpool's 86 goals in 24-25 (three goals, six assists), with only two defenders involved in more over the course of the season. Advertisement His exceptional passing ability was once again on show across the season. Among defenders, he ranked in the top three for each of: passes in the final third (673, 2nd) line-breaking passes in the final third (232, second) passes into the box (239, first) chances created (53, 3rd) big chances created (15, joint first), expected assists (7.4, first) expected assists in open play (6.2, first) William Saliba (Arsenal) It was another second-place finish for Arsenal - their third in a row since Saliba's debut in August 2022 - but yet again it was a superb individual season for the France centre-back. Only three central defenders kept more clean sheets than Saliba (12), while the Gunners conceded one goal for every 113 minutes he was the pitch, the best ratio of any central defender in the Premier League. Saliba was also second across all players for successful passes with 2,409 and he completed an incredible 94.6% of his pass attempts, the third best ratio on record by a player to attempt at least 2,000 in a season since 03-04 and the best by an Arsenal player in a single season in that time. Advertisement The recent 1-0 win over Newcastle was also Saliba's 100th Premier League game and his 68th victory, equalling the record for wins in a player's first 100 Arsenal games and going level with Sol Campbell and Lauren. Virgil van Dijk (Liverpool) Van Dijk was so close to becoming the first player in Premier League history to play every single minute of two different title-winning seasons until he was given a rest for the 3-2 defeat to Brighton on 19 May. For a fourth consecutive season, the Dutchman completed the most passes of any Liverpool player in the Premier League, while this season he ranked top league-wide with 2,680. Advertisement He remains incredibly effective in duels, winning 68.7% this season, ranking him top among players to contest at least 250, while aerially he also ranked first for percentage of aerial duels won, winning 119 out of 165 (72%). Josko Gvardiol (Manchester City) Although it was trophyless season for Manchester City, the performances of Gvardiol were one bright spark. Gvardiol ended the season as the joint-highest scoring defender with five goals, while only Steve Howey in 00-01 (six) has ever scored more among defenders for City in a Premier League season. Gvardiol was key in moving City into attacking areas, ranking second among defenders for both ball-carry distance (7,462 metres) and ball carry progress (4,215 metres). He also made 717 successful passes in the final third and 263 line-breaking passes in the final third - the most of any defender this season. Ryan Gravenberch (Liverpool) Operating in a deeper lying role under manager Arne Slot, Gravenberch enjoyed a superb season and was an integral part of Liverpool's 24-25 title win, starting 37 of 38 games and featuring in all 25 victories. Advertisement The Dutchman led all midfielders for interceptions (60), with his tally last bettered by a Liverpool midfielder in 15-16 (Emre Can, 62). He won possession back for his side on 193 occasions - the joint fourth best of any defensive midfielder in 24-25 - while in possession he completed the third-most passes of any midfielder (1,704) and made the most progressive carries of 10 or more metres of any defensive midfielder (118). Declan Rice (Arsenal) Only Bukayo Saka and Martin Odegaard had more Premier League assists for Arsenal this season than Rice (seven), while his 59 chances created and 16 big chances created are his best personal totals in a league campaign. Advertisement Arsenal's prowess from set-pieces is no secret and nor is Rice's role in it - he created 26 chances from set plays, with only three players creating more, while his expected assists figure from set plays led the way among all players (3.2). The England midfielder was also key in moving Arsenal upfield. He progressed the ball 2,740 metres with ball carries, the most of any Gunners player and third-most of any central midfielder. Bryan Mbeumo (Brentford) With 20 goals and seven assists, Mbeumo enjoyed a superb individual campaign, breaking the record for goals and assists combined by a Brentford player in a Premier League season. Only once did he go three appearances in a row without scoring or assisting. Advertisement The Cameroon forward created 70 chances, also a record by a Bees player in one season, while it is a total that only four players bettered in 24-25, and his expected assists total of 9.3 was the joint best of any player. Mbeumo was also deadly in front of goal, finding the net with 23.5% of his shots (20/85), the best figure of any player to attempt at least 70 shots. He exceeded his expected goal (xG) total by more than seven goals (20 goals, 12.3 xG), the best overperformance in the entire division. He continued his excellent record in London derbies, too. Mbeumo scored against all six opponents (Arsenal, Chelsea, Crystal Palace, Fulham, Tottenham and West Ham) to become the first player in Premier League history to score against six different teams in London derbies in one campaign. Matheus Cunha (Wolves) Matheus Cunha looks set to leave Wolves in the summer transfer window [Getty Images] Cunha's outstanding performances for Wolves this season have put him on the verge of a move to Manchester United. Advertisement Despite Wolves not once entering the top half all season, the Brazilian contributed to 15 goals and six assists which helped them move clear of relegation. Only Raul Jimenez in 19-20 (17 goals, six assists) has ever been involved in more goals in a Premier League campaign for Wolves. Cunha is the first player since Charlie Austin in 14-15 for Queen's Park Rangers to get 20 or more goals and assists in a season where they never played a minute in the top half of the table. Among players to play 2,500 minutes in the Premier League this season, Cunha ranked top - per 90 minutes - for shots attempted (3.8), third for shots on target (1.5) and second for fouls won (2.5). Of his 15 Premier League goals - a joint record by a Brazilian player - five of them were from outside the box, the joint most of any player in 24-25 along with Bruno Fernandes, someone who may be his teammate come the start of next season. Alexander Isak (Newcastle) The records have tumbled for Isak in 24-25. Isak began the season on 31 goals but ended it with 54 and in the process became the leading Swedish Premier League scorer, overtaking Freddie Ljungberg's total of 48 with a double against Nottingham Forest in February. Advertisement In that same game, Isak's two goals took him to 50 in just 76 appearances, the fastest any Newcastle player has reached 50 Premier League goals, breaking Alan Shearer's record of 87. The Sweden forward also achieved something else Shearer never managed - scoring in eight consecutive Premier League appearances, doing so between 4 December and 15 January. Isak was just the fourth player to achieve that feat after Ruud van Nistelrooy, Daniel Sturridge and Jamie Vardy. In December, Isak scored eight goals - more than seven clubs managed that month - and won the Player of the Month. Isak ended the season on 23 Premier League goals, the most by a Magpies player since Shearer's 23 in 01-02, and only Mohamed Salah scored more in 24-25. Advertisement He needed just 46 shots on target to score those 23, with that the second-best conversion rate (50%) from shots on target of any Newcastle player to have 25 or more shots in a season since 03-04. Mohamed Salah (Liverpool) Mohamed Salah has won two Premier League titles with Liverpool [Getty Images] Possibly the easiest choice of all time for a player's inclusion in a statistical team of the season, Salah enjoyed one of the finest individual seasons in Premier League history. Many of his astonishing records from 24-25 may not be beaten for many years. The Egyptian was involved in 47 Premier League goals (29 goals, 18 assists), a record in a 38-game campaign to overtake the 44 goal and assist seasons of Thierry Henry in 2002-03 and Erling Haaland in 2022-23. Advertisement Including 42-game seasons, Andrew Cole and Alan Shearer had 34 goals and 13 assists in 93-94 and 94-95 respectively, which Salah matched with his equaliser against Crystal Palace on the final day. With these goals and assists totals, it's little surprise that Salah topped the charts outright for both metrics in 24-25, only the third time a player has achieved that, along with Cole in 93-94 and Harry Kane in 20-21. Salah scored and assisted in 11 different Premier League games this season, four more than any other player has done so in a season. Across Europe's big five leagues, it was the most since Lionel Messi did so 11 times in 14-15 for Barcelona. Sixteen of Salah's 29 Premier League goals were scored away from home, a joint record, while he also added 11 away assists, again a joint record. Advertisement Salah's 27 is the most goals and assists combined away from home in one season. Although Salah did not beat topple the all-time assist record in a season of 20, all 18 of his assists came from open play - that's the second most behind Thierry Henry in 02-03 (20). Salah was also the Premier League's most creative player in open play, making 86 chances and most big chances (27) for his team-mates. Salah had the most shots (130), registered the best xG (25.4) and had the most touches in the opposition box (394).

Australia now has the world's highest rate of bowel cancer for people under 50
Australia now holds a grim record — the highest rate of bowel cancer in people under the age of 50 anywhere in the world. Once considered an 'old person's disease,' it is now the deadliest form of cancer for men under the age of 50, and second deadliest for women under 50. The surge in early-onset cases has prompted health experts and advocacy groups to issue an urgent call to know the signs and push for screening earlier. Andrew Saliba, a father-of-two, was just 36 years old when he noticed something wasn't right. His wife urged him to see a doctor but was told he was too young to be anything serious: 'My wife nagged me to go to the doctor,' Saliba told 7NEWS. 'The doctor said you've probably got haemorrhoids. I got treated for that, and it was still happening. So I went to a second GP, and I pushed for a colonoscopy. 'Once I woke up from that, he informed me that he found something and I had cancer.' The colonoscopy revealed he had stage three bowel cancer. Andrew Saliba's story is becoming more common. Since 2000, bowel cancer diagnoses in Australians under 40 have more than doubled. No one knows exactly why, but experts are sounding the alarm. The research also reveals 28,265 cases of aggressive types of early-onset bowel cancer over the past 30 years, including an estimated 4,347 additional early-onset bowel cancer cases attributable to the rising rates of the disease. 'We don't know why rates are rising,' said Julien Wiggins, CEO of Bowel Cancer Australia. 'Research is very important to address the issue, lowering the screening age is also extremely important.' Currently, Australians over 50 receive free bowel cancer screening kits by mail every two years. However, anyone over 45 can now request a kit through their GP. For many, that earlier option could be life-saving. 'If I waited until the age of 45, it would have been too late for me,' Saliba reflected. Recent findings from Australian researchers show that people born in 1990 are three times more likely to be diagnosed with bowel cancer than those born in 1950. The reasons remain unclear, but several factors are under investigation including diet, obesity and gut health. 'We're looking closely at things like diet, weight gain, and changes to the gut microbiome,' Professor Mark Jenkins, a leading researcher in the field, told 7NEWS. With no definitive cause identified, awareness is the most powerful tool currently available. Kleenex has now partnered with Bowel Cancer Australia to help raise awareness by printing signs and messages on toilet paper rolls. The campaign aims to prompt Australians to think twice about their symptoms and talk to their doctors. Signs of bowel cancer can include

Arsenal Agree Five Contract Deals Ahead of Busy Summer Window
Arsenal Secure Future of Core Stars Amid Contract Turmoil: A Turning Point for Arteta's Gunners In what could prove to be a pivotal summer for Arsenal Football Club, key contract agreements have reportedly been reached with several of Mikel Arteta's most trusted names. According to a report by FootballTransfers, the Gunners have 'already agreed' deals with five crucial players, reinforcing the long-term vision Arteta and the club's hierarchy have so carefully built in recent years. Advertisement This development will come as welcome news to fans who have watched the emergence of a competitive, dynamic squad that has consistently challenged at the top end of the Premier League. However, uncertainty still looms over two experienced figures, with potential exits hinting at a broader strategic reset in midfield. Saliba, Gabriel and Saka: Arsenal's Core Locked In Among the most reassuring revelations in the FootballTransfers article is that William Saliba, Gabriel Magalhães and Bukayo Saka have all reached agreements on long-term contracts. Club insiders are said to have confirmed that the extensions were 'sorted quickly' and that negotiations had concluded some time ago, even if public announcements are yet to be made. 'These three deals were 'sorted quickly' and are 'already agreed',' the report states, putting to bed speculation about big-money exits, especially concerning Real Madrid's rumoured interest in Saliba. Photo IMAGO With Saliba commanding a current Estimated Transfer Value (ETV) of €79.5 million and Gabriel not far behind at €75.5 million, the significance of keeping these two central defenders at the Emirates cannot be overstated. Their synergy at the back has underpinned much of Arsenal's success in recent campaigns. Advertisement Similarly, Saka's continued commitment to the club ensures that Arteta retains a homegrown talisman, one whose form and influence have drawn admiration across Europe. Youth Secured: Nwaneri and Lewis-Skelly Commit Futures In addition to the established stars, Arsenal have also ensured continuity among their most promising youngsters. Ethan Nwaneri and Myles Lewis-Skelly have both agreed to fresh terms, with sources reiterating that 'negotiations have concluded and that these extensions will be announced in due time.' This move reflects a growing pattern at Arsenal, where youth development is not just encouraged, but integrated into the first-team project. Nwaneri, who made headlines as the youngest Premier League debutant, and Lewis-Skelly, a dynamic midfield prospect, now have the platform to flourish within a supportive and ambitious environment. Uncertainty for Partey and Trossard While the bulk of the club's core is staying put, not every player's future is resolved. Advertisement Leandro Trossard's situation remains particularly delicate. As the FootballTransfers report outlines, 'a breakthrough in the discussions was made in February, but the final wage still needs to be agreed.' With the Belgian winger proving an effective squad player, the uncertainty surrounding his deal may reflect the club's broader strategy of keeping wage demands in line with value contributed. Photo IMAGO Thomas Partey's status is perhaps more flexible. The Ghanaian midfielder is reportedly 'open to continuing at the club,' but his situation is described as relaxed on both sides. Should an offer come in, Arsenal are understood to be prepared to move on, especially with potential replacements already scoped out. Agoume Identified as Partey Replacement One such alternative is Lucien Agoume. The Sevilla midfielder, still just 23, has been on Arsenal's radar for some time and is now 'viewed as an ideal replacement for Partey,' the article confirms. While not yet a household name, Agoume's blend of physical presence and tactical intelligence makes him an intriguing option for Arsenal's evolving midfield unit. Advertisement Interestingly, Arsenal also continue to be linked with Martin Zubimendi, long seen as a target to bolster the engine room. A potential double signing in midfield would represent both ambition and prudence should Partey depart. Our View – EPL Index Analysis From an Arsenal fan's perspective, this report hits all the right notes. Securing long-term deals for Saliba, Gabriel and Saka is nothing short of a statement. These aren't just talented players, they are the pillars of a title-challenging squad. For years, we've seen our best talents leave—this feels different. It feels like the project is maturing, and now the stars believe in it as much as we do. The fact that Nwaneri and Lewis-Skelly are tied down too? Brilliant. This club is building for now and for the future, and that's exactly the dual-track strategy you need if you want to compete with Manchester City and maintain it long-term. Advertisement As for Trossard and Partey, it's a shame if they leave, especially given Partey's underrated contributions. But the idea that we've already lined up Agoume as a replacement and are still targeting someone like Zubimendi suggests the recruitment team is not only reactive, but proactive. If these contracts are announced soon and the transfer strategy is executed cleanly, this summer could finally be the one where Arsenal move from contenders to champions.

Sutton's predictions: Southampton v Arsenal
There will be Arsenal fans going to this game who are really jealous of Tottenham and what they have achieved this season, you can be sure of Arteta's side have been miles better than Spurs, obviously, but they don't have a trophy to show for it, unlike their north London rivals, and trophies are what football is is absurd to suggest Arteta should be any under pressure for my prediction, well this one is pretty easy to call. Arsenal are without the injured William Saliba at the back, but they have got Declan Rice as their driving force and this should be a routine win for the held out for a draw against Manchester City in their previous home game but I expect they are still too worn out from celebrating that point to get anything prediction: 0-2Read the full predictions and have your say here
