    Are you saying all foreign players are lazy bastards? Though it must be players that have more or less played a full 90 minutes in nearly every game.

    Im surprised Hudd is in there, and Im even more surprised that Elmo isn't.

    How the hell do they work these things out btw? Does someone watch each player and record every single thing they do?

    FACT 1 - They have a Weight Watchers ****meter sewn into their stockings.

    FACT 2 - Hudd's only there 'cos he stands in the centre circle tapping his feet.

    I remember the old City Mag did a feature on prozone stats and it was exactly that. Someone spends hours watching the game and notes down every little thing that happens. Still doesn't really explain how distances are tracked though.

    I think they have a GPS chip in their boots these days.

    some numpty at the daily mail doesn't understand how to put commas into big numbers. given the i.q. average exhibited by writers on the daily mail staff, it doesn't surprise.

    I would have thought ProZone could calculate the numbers automatically.

    ProZone has a lot to answer for given the silly passes backwards and forwards over a yard or so.

    Jedinaks a holding midfielder, surprised if these are correct.

    Plus that little ****er Willian for Chelsea seems to be in perpetual motion, he'd be in there. Ramires too.

    GPS is banned in games. Players can't wear tracking devices apart from training, when most have them between he shoulders in a vest

    And willian didn't play too much earlier on

    Huddlestone must have taken his boots home in the car a few times without removing the chip. :D

    Elmo must have run twice as far as Thudd. Caulker???? FFS he hardly ever gets out of the box except to go up on corner kicks. The man is a slug. Davies covers far more ground. Jake I can see...he does a huge job in CMF. Willian would be #1 by far if he'd played all season.

    Elmo runs up and down one side, central midfielders cover a lot more ground
