Worst Premier League finishers of 2023-24 so far revealed as TWO big-money Chelsea transfers make the top three
THE PREMIER LEAGUE is one of the best competitions in the world - if not THE best.
It's full of star-studded squads, magnificent stadiums, mega-money transfers and of course fantastic goalscorers.
But, despite all that, there are still some stars who couldn't hit a barn door.
And top of that unflattering list so far in the 2023-2024 season is Chelsea's £32million signing Nicolas Jackson.
Stats boffins at this very early stage in the season say Jackson, 22, should have scored three goals so far this season... but has managed just one.
In fact, the Senegal international has missed six major chances in the first four matches.

Jackson is Chelsea's only senior centre-forward following Christopher Nkunku's injury.
But he is not the only misfiring Blue, with £106m team-mate Enzo Fernandez sitting third.
The Argentine has 1.4 expected goals (XG) this season - while failing to find the net.
Fernandez has taken 10 shots, but only one of them hit the target... and that was a penalty saved by West Ham keeper Alphonse Areola.

Between the Blues pair comes Aston Villa's goalless Ollie Watkins with an XG of 1.8.
Brentford will be hoping Neal Maupay will have better aim during his season-long loan stint at the Gtech Community Stadium as he is No4 on the list.
Maupay should have 1.4 goals for Everton by now from his five shots, although four of them were on target.
Wolves boss Gary O'Neil could be dealing with quite a headache with three of his players on that list.
Those are Pedro Neto in fifth, Fabio Silva in seventh and Mathus Cunha in ninth place.
Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes is sixth with one goal out of an expected 2.1.
While Everton star Abdoulaye Doucoure is in eighth place with one goal out of an expected 1.9.
Crystal Palace's Jordan Ayew is last - even though he was voted as the Eagles' player of the month in August - as he has taken 12 shots in four games and only hit the target three times.
