The 11 players with the most offsides in Premier League history - No.4 might shock you

Strikers are the best-paid players on the pitch and also the ones who get the most accolades. However, they can often be the most frustrating, especially when they miss big chances or struggle to stay on the right side of the opposition defence.
There aren't many more humbling feelings than wildly celebrating your front man smashing one into the back of the net, only to see it ruled out thanks to the linesman raising his flag. Or, in this modern day, a 10-minute VAR check.
Here, Express Sport takes a look at the most frustrating forwards who struggled to stay on the right side of the last defender.
Jamie Vardy was the king of running off the last defender's shoulder and firing one past the keeper.
However, he didn't always time those runs perfectly.
For the large number of matches that Shane Long played, that is not a bad return.
Pretty much an offside every other match for a forward who also had the defenders constantly scanning behind them.
The first different type of striker on this list. Romelu Lukaku could come in short to link up play or drive in behind.
His 11 years in the Premier League meant he was destined to be in the top 10.
Sergio Aguero was one of the best finishers of his generation - and every goal seemed to come from inside the penalty box.
His clever movement was a nightmare for defenders, and he only needed a yard of space to get on the scoresheet.

Gabby Agbonlahor never fulfilled his potential after breaking through at Aston Villa as one of England's brightest young talents.
His pace used to cause defenders nightmares, but now he's perhaps more well known for his talkSPORT show and In The Mixer podcast than his on-pitch career.
