    Ross McCormack is the most creative player for Fulham in the Championship, statistics suggest. The Scottish forward has set up an average of 2.2 chances per game in the league this season - more than any other player at the club.

    [The Trinity Mirror Data Unit has taken the number of chances created per player, as compiled by Opta, for those to have played in 10 or more games.]

    In his 18 games in the league this season, McCormack has set up a teammate 40 times - 2.2 per game. Seven of those (18 per cent) were turned into goals - one of the highest ratios in the league.

    Just behind McCormack for Fulham is Hugo Rodallega with 24 chances in 14 appearances - 1.7 per game.

    Then comes Bryan Ruiz (1.6 per game), Lasse Vigen Christensen (1.4) and Scott Parker (0.9).

    Cheers C58. Do those stats include set pieces? You'd expect McCormack and Ruiz to be up there if so.

    Impressive from LVC.

    Think they are for open play only.

    And here's another inspiring little chart (that Sky have produced) -

    Nice one! Explains why it's nine games since we last failed to score and why we're the second highest in the league since Kit took over.

    Why is a Sunderland player listed among what I presume is the top scorers/creators for the Championship? If he's on loan somewhere, you have thought they would use the club he's actually playing for.

    Nope he's a Boro player, hasn't played for Sunderland for years. Just an error on the part of whoever made the chart.
