Football is fun to watch because some players would go from hero to zero in just a month. Some of the biggest names are to feature in All Football Flops of the Month for April - and you know why.
Here, we take a look at eleven players whose performances dip so spectacularly that some of their own fans are calling them to leave the club. Make sure you vote for the captain in the end as well.
GK: David de Gea (Man Utd)
We start with the worst. Mistakes against Barcelona, Everton, Manchester City and Chelsea compound with ongoing transfer rumours. Nowhere near good enough to be Man United No.1 in April.
DF: Presnel Kimpembe (PSG)
It's Kimpembe again. His handball eliminated PSG from Champions League in March and now his own goal cost his team the Coupe de France trophy. Another disastrous month for him.
DF: Alessio Romagnoli (AC Milan)
Milan are chasing top 4 in Serie A all season and now they're only seventh. He was red carded in their 2-0 defeat to Torino for sarcastically applauding the referee. It's not as if his other displays are good either, as they won only one game in six.
DF: Shkodran Mustafi (Arsenal)
When you tell a new football fan that Mustafi is a World Cup winner, he or she would quit watching the game right away. Seriously why couldn't he calm himself down in crucial moments?
DF: Ashley Young (Man Utd)
Red-carded in United's 2-1 defeat to Wolves early in April. But that pales in comparision to what he did against Barcelona - trying to dribble past Barcelona and ending up costing his team the Lionel Messi opener. Way past his best for some time.
MF: Marco Reus (Borussia Dortmund)
Captain Reus complained about being made to playing out of position after their 5-0 title-deciding defeat to Bayern Munich. Got sent off after a poor tackle in Revierderby as well. Dortmund's chances of winning the Bundesliga now look very slim.
MF: Paul Pogba (Man Utd)
No disrespect intended but Pogba deserves to be here. Scored two penalties in April and that's it. Flirting with Real Madrid when his own team were in danger won't go well with the United faithful.
MF: Mesut Ozil (Arsenal)
Clearly not Unai Emery's first pick in his starting line-up. Not used in big games and barely delivers when he plays. Did score a good goal against Crystal Palace but can't cope with pressure most of the time in April.
FW: Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting (PSG)
His PSG career will forever remembered for that comedy empty-goal miss - or goal line clearance for the opposition. Three goals in 28 games explain how poor he has been.
FW: Gonzalo Higuain (Chelsea)
Higuain was born offside? Caught five times against Man United but his gesture suggests it's not his fault. Still fails to get used to the rhythm and physicality of the Premier League. Oh wow, Maurizio Sarri said he would try hard to make him stay at Stamford Bridge.
FW: Gareth Bale (Real Madrid)
Now even Zinedine Zidane questions Bale's focus in the game. Looks set to leave Real Madrid in the summer after another disappointing month which saw him record no goal and play only one full game.
MANAGER: Ole Gunnar Solskjaer (Man Utd)
1 win, 1 draw and 3 defeats is a relegation team standard. But that's Man United in the league in April. Not to mention the tame efforts against Barcelona in two legs. Is Solskjaer any better than Jose Mourinho?
