Again, based on net transfer spend and expectations,who do you think has been this years star performers in the premier league? Its a tough one but for me none of the usual suspects get it. Mine are as follows; 1st: Fulham - Limited spend, limited budget with small ground. Played as many games as us and have mixed (playing some tasty football along the way) it with best and could finish 7th. 2nd: Everton - Great run, and would have been my 1st pick if not for their poor start to the season! Works wonders on a restricted budget even though they lost Arteta! 3rd:Newcastle - Still recovering from their demotion and the sale of Caroll - tough not to give them top spot - but they have a massive ground and can aford big wages! 4th: WBA - similiar to Fulham and Everton with less quality - a few more points and they could have been higher in my list! Special mention to Swansea & Norwich who have exceeded expecatations, played some good football and scored goals, Home and Away! Next season will tell whether they are here to stay?
