Looking at the performances of each club and their summer signings, there are a load of summer signings packing the mid-tiers while it’ll be interesting to see who will make the top and bottom tiers in this instalment of Transfers Tier Ranking.

 

In this third instalment, I’ll be taking a look at the summer signings made by the following clubs: Manchester United, Liverpool, Manchester City, Newcastle United and Norwich City, and rank them based on how they have fared and what impact they have had so far this season.

Looking at the performances of each club and their summer signings, there are a load of summer signings packing the mid-tiers, but it will be interesting to see who will make the top and bottom tiers in this instalment of Transfers Tier Ranking.

 

Please Note the alphabets associated with the list work as given below –

A – Excellent signing

B – Great signing, star potential

C – Decent start, will only grow from here

D – Shaky start, but will come good

E – Average signing

F – Poor signing, likely to flop

 

So, without further ado, let’s take a look at the transfers tier ranking list for the aforementioned Premier League clubs.

 

Tier A

Unfortunately, this time around, not a single player has made it to my Tier A list. There were one or two signings who would have staked a claim for their inconsistency coupled with the up and down performances from their teams as a whole, but I have chosen to put none in this Tier.

 

Tier B

So, the first player to feature on my list is Raphaël Varane.

The 28-year-old World Cup-winner signed for Manchester United this summer with just one-year remaining in his Real Madrid contract. The four-time Champions League-winner was brought in to shore up any frailties in the Manchester United backline.

Although things have only gotten worse in recent weeks, Varane has put in solid defensive displays ever since making his Manchester United debut against Wolverhampton Wanderers. He has started 6 league games so far this season and has managed to come away with two clean sheets. Moreover, the Frenchman averages 4.0 clearances/90’ and 1.5 tackles/90’ while winning 4.1 duels/90’ (66%).

 

Tier C

 

Norwich City made more summer signings than the other four clubs combined: nine, to be precise. Four of those signings feature in my Tier C.

 

Tier D

 

Tier E

 

Tier F

Surprisingly, in this instalment of Transfers Tier Ranking, I don’t have anyone for either Tier A or Tier F.

As one can see below, most signings were between Tier C and Tier D for me, while just four players made up the other two Tiers.

Thus, it would be safe to assume that these clubs had a transfer window ranging from above-average to underwhelming. Not Great. Not Disastrous. But everything in between.
