Top 5 Centre Backs In The Premier League (Based On Aerial Dominance) - Part 2

5) James Tarkowski (Everton) – 83.2

The 31-year-old is very much an old-fashioned centre-back.

Tarkowski is not afraid to put in a challenge; some of which have been known to step over the line in terms of aggression.

Aerially, he has always been pretty dominant, and that comes with the territory when playing under head coach Sean Dyche.

Tarkowski has now been managed by Dyche at both Burnley and Everton.
