Richard Keys left the beIN Sports panel in shock after presenting his Premier League Team of the Season live on-air.

The former Sky Sports anchor selected his best XI of Premier League players for this season ahead of the final set of games on Sunday.

Keys went with a 4-3-3 formation packed with Manchester City and Arsenal stars, with the former being represented by five different players.

His back four was in front of Aston Villa goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez, with Arsenal duo William Saliba and Gabriel named as the centre-back pairing.

City right-back Kyle Walker was included, with Manchester United's Diogo Dalot featuring on the other side.

The midfield three was made up of Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard alongside Manchester City's Kevin De Bruyne and Chelsea's Cole Palmer.

And the attacking three consisted of Manchester City trio Erling Haaland, Phil Foden and Jeremy Doku - with no room for Arsenal's Bukayo Saka or City star Rodri.

Explaining his picks, Keys said: "You cannot possibly play anyone other than Walker at right-back. The two Arsenal boys have been sensational.

"Diogo Dalot - he can play left or right-back at United, like he has done this season, and I think he's done really well.

"In midfield, you can't get better than that. Palmer, Odegaard, De Bruyne.

"The front three are City's first choice front three. That is the best team that we will see."

Upon hearing that Doku was included in Keys' starting XI, pundit Andy Gray exclaimed: "Doku? Doku's a sub. Doku's a sub."

Jason McAteer than challenged Keys: "De Bruyne's missed half the season. Doku's been on the bench more often than he's started. What are you going to do when you've not got the ball?"

Keys replied: "We're not going to not have the ball."

That prompted another laugh from Gray, who added: "I love your optimism."
