#3 Romelu Lukaku (Chelsea) - 6.2 presses per 90
Thomas Tuchel's Chelsea is yet another side that does not press very high up the pitch. They look to close down passing lanes and make things more intense in the center of the park than they do in the attacking third whilst they are not in possession.
Romelu Lukaku was roped in from Inter Milan this summer for a sum of €115 million. The Belgian international is renowned for his hold-up play and astounding burst of pace. Lukaku has completed 6.2 presses per 90 for the Blues.
The 28-year-old has got off to a decent start in his second stint at Chelsea. He has scored three goals in six Premier League appearances so far this season.
#2 Allan Saint-Maximin (Newcastle United) - 5.2 presses per 90
Newcastle United's Allan Saint-Maximin is one of the most exciting and entertaining attackers in the Premier League. He is incredible with the ball at his feet and can dance rings around defenders on any given day, although his final product could do with some improvement.
Saint-Maximin completes the second lowest number of pressures per 90 minutes in the Premier League. Steve Bruce's Newcastle United take a rather defensive approach to their game and are not known for being a high-pressing unit.
But even then, 5.2 presses per 90 minutes is not a very commendable output and fans will want to see more intent from the 24-year-old.
#1 Cristiano Ronaldo (Manchester United) - 2.7 presses per game
Cristiano Ronaldo has already made an impact since returning to Manchester United this past summer. He has scored some very important goals in his second stint already which includes a 95th minute winner against Villarreal.
While he has been effective in the final third when Manchester United are in possession, the same cannot be said about his work off the ball. Ronaldo averages a meagre 2.7 presses per game.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's other main striking option is Edinson Cavani, who is renowned for his pressing. However, given the fact that Ronaldo has five goals in six appearances so far, United fans won't be too concerned about his pressing for now.
Ronaldo likes to play the length of games and was only taken off once in the game against Young Boys. He was used as a substitute in United's 1-1 draw against Everton. Ronaldo's age must be starting to catch up with him but Solskjaer can't be faulted for demanding a little more from his main striker when they're out of possession.
