However, a more credible selection is that of a Newcastle United star who has really excelled this campaign.

Wayne Rooney talking to Amazon Prime – 24 April 2025:

“These are my top five Premier League players this season.

“In fifth place, I would probably go Bruno Fernandes. Obviously Man U haven’t had a great season but he has been the one player who keeps producing, so I would go with Bruno at number five.

“In fourth place, I would probably go with [Morgan] Gibbs-White. I think he has had a fantastic season for Nottingham Forest, creating and scoring goals and having been their main player in my opinion.

“In third place, I would go Cole Palmer. I know that of late he hasn’t scored the goals he did at the start of the season, but I still think he has been really influential for Chelsea this season.

“In second place I would go with [Alexander] Isak from Newcastle. I think his all round play, his goals, obviously scoring the goal in the [League Cup] final as well. So he would be my number two pick.
