The Premier League has contributed the most number of players to the Most Tackles XI, seven in total, including Leicester City trio Ndidi, Ricardo Pereira and James Maddison.
On Ndidi, Ben McAleer wrote : "The second of three Leicester representatives in this XI, the Foxes' performances have been sub-par in Wilfred Ndidi's absence this season and for good reason, too.
"The all-action Nigerian has the knack of alleviating pressure on the defence with ease as his 91 tackles suggests."
