The data-driven ranking, compiled from the opening months of the season, places Arokodare among the lowest-rated players in the league.
The Super Eagles striker arrived in England with huge expectations after lighting up the Belgian Pro League.
He scored 21 goals in 40 matches and won the Ebony Shoe as the league’s best African player.
But his transition to Premier League football has been far from smooth.
Arokodare is yet to find the net in seven appearances, including two starts, as Wolves are still searching for their first league win of the season.
Isak, meanwhile, has struggled to justify his big-money move to Liverpool, joining Arokodare as the attacking pair in the Flop XI.
Wolves’ early-season struggles are further reflected in the selection, with José Sá and Toti Gomes also included, making up three of the eleven players chosen.
Brentford’s Aaron Hickey and Keane Lewis-Potter join Fulham’s Issa Diop to complete the backline.
The midfield features Leeds United duo Ao Tanaka and Daniel James, Everton’s Carlos Alcaraz and Fulham winger Adama Traoré, all of whom have endured inconsistent starts to the campaign.
Among all 10 outfield players listed, Arokodare ranks lowest, receiving a score of 5.98.
A reflection of the challenging adjustment period the striker faces in England’s top flight.
