Who is the shortest player in the Premier League and where does your team's smallest player rank?

Using the figures from transfermarkt.com, Planet Sport has picked out each top-flight club's smallest player and assessed the 20 sides' overall squad height.

Steven Gerrard's men sit joint-eighth with Arsenal in the overall height rankings, also with a collective average of 182.1cm (5ft 11½in). Team talks are a little easier at Villa Park, though, with the manager being 0.5cm (0.2in) taller than his squad.

He is certainly taller than his former Liverpool teammate Philippe Coutinho, who, at 172cm (5ft 7½in) is the shortest member of his side. Alongside his spell at Liverpool, the Brazilian has previously represented Inter Milan, Vasco da Gama, Espanyol, Barcelona, and Bayern Munich.

However, manager Thomas Frank, a Dane himself, does not quite fit that, standing 8cm (3in) shorter than his squad. Fortunately for him, he does have someone in his dressing room who he can at least stand taller than, with former Walsall left-back Rico Henry being his shortest player, at 170cm (5ft 7in).

The man right at the bottom of the Seagulls' squad list by height is wing-back Tariq Lamptey, who is in fact the third-shortest player in the entire Premier League. The former Chelsea man is just 164cm (5ft 4½in) tall.

Again, a short Burnley player feels like a logical impossibility, but the smallest member of their squad is only one place above Lamptey in the entire league-wide rankings. He is former Leeds, Tottenham, Everton, and Kayserispor winger Aaron Lennon, and he stands at 165cm (5ft 5in) tall.

That makes him a full 22cm (8½in) taller than his shortest player, who is midfielder N'Golo Kante. The tireless Frenchman, who previously played for Boulogne, Caen and Leicester, stands at 168cm (5ft 6¼in).
