    Good article and for those of you from other boards that won't read it and post various crap here - the rankings are from Opta and not off the top of someone's head.

    Yet Hull would find it tough to decide who they would have upfront between Vardy, Hernandez, and Chuba, and Mahrez "might get in if he stopped diving" <doh> <doh> <doh>

    Saw that Sky run a "power ratings" system or something to that ilk.

    Basically players are rated based on their last 5 games and our entire first 11 are in the top 50.

    Who the **** is "Chuba"?

    Why it's Chuba Akpom of course, how could you not know?

    The guy is on a record-breaking run of scoring in zero consecutive Premier League games...

    Disappointed and dismayed that Kante isnt in that rating as he is fast becoming one of my favourites of all time.

    I'll keep banging my drum for Marc Albrighton. His long overdue introduction late last season sparked our current run of form and he rates at least 8/10 every game.

    That Drinkwater hasn't been playing too bad either...

    Did somebody say something about a 2 man team? <whistle>

    DD will hopefully prove to Manchester United at the weekend they should never have let him go. He's due a goal...

    Good old Derby. Hope they get promoted.
    Would be nice to have an East Midlands derby game next season.

    Yeah it'd be great if us and Derby establish ourselves in the prem whilst Forest continue to rot in the championship. I've always quite liked Derby (as rivals go) as their fans are much more down to earth
