5 Premier League summer signings that have failed to deliver

Not a place for everyone

#4 Victor Lindelof

Swansea City v Manchester United - Carabao Cup Fourth Round
Lindelof hasn't lived up to his modest price tag

The young Swedish defender was bought from Benfica for 32 million pounds but is yet to justify even this modest price tag.

On his arrival to the league, he was hailed as one of the best centre-backs in the game and was touted to become the future of Manchester United. But since then, he has hardly put in a performance that merits the tag.

Lindelof has not started a lot of games this season (923 minutes played in the PL), but this is not due to him not being trusted - it is a result of the mistakes he has made through when he has been called in to start. Most notably, his errors were responsible for Manchester United's shocking loss to Huddersfield earlier in the season.

At 23 years of age and standing tall at 6 ft and 1 inch, this is not the end of the road for the defender. Unfortunately, this is not the best of starts either. It will take much more great performances from him if he wants to claw his way into the starting line-up.
