Wasted, ignored and out in the cold. This Premier League XI is a team made up of the top tier's most wasted talent that are currently occupying the bench instead of putting in the performances they're capable of on the pitch.

The cut-throat nature of the Premier League means a few poor showings and a player is out of the team, or perhaps they never make it into the team following a transfer to a new club. Either way, a talented player soon becomes a wasted commodity when they could be easily commanding a place in another team.

Read on to see if any of your team's players have made it into the Premier League's Wasted XI - a collection of footballers who are simply being wasted at their current club.
