A closer look at the Premier League seasons for Richards, Robinson, and more

The English Premier League campaign has come and gone, but many American players delivered lasting marks with their respective clubs this season.

Chris Richards and Crystal Palace enjoyed their first top-half finish since 2014-15, with Richards enjoying a larger role in his second season in South London. The U.S. men’s national team centerback will now head into international duty this June, starting with friendlies against Colombia and Brazil.

Antonee Robinson’s impactful campaign for Fulham helped the USMNT left back grow his status as one of the league’s more consistent fullbacks. Despite Fulham finishing in the bottom half of the league table, Robinson walked away as one of the better performers for the Cottagers.

Auston Trusty suffered Premier League relegation with Sheffield United, but will be an important player for the Blades next season, if he stays with the club.

Matt Turner’s status with Nottingham Forest remains unknown after the USMNT No. 1 lost the starting job midway through the season. Turner still has something to offer at Forest, but it will be intriguing if Nuno Espírito Santo decides to keep him long-term.

Gio Reyna endured a tough loan spell at the City Ground while Tim Ream was in-and-out of the Fulham starting lineup this season. Tyler Adams will hope to be back to 100% when Bournemouth aims to build off of its 12th place finish.
