The Barclays Premier League is underway and it looks like a great season in prospect with both Manchester clubs scoring at will and a pick of clubs vying for European spots. After every match weekend we'll provide you with the Barclays Premier League Team of the Week and some of the top factoids gleaned from the performance data.
Run Ramsey Run!
Arsenal 1-0 Swansea: for the fourth game in a row this season, Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey covered more distance during the 90 minutes than any other Arsenal player - clocking up 7.14 miles alone in this game against The Swans.
Liverpool Lagging?
Stoke 1-0 Liverpool: While we're on the running tip, over seven of Stoke's starting eleven covered more than seven miles during their win against Liverpool, including Anfield old boy Peter Crouch. In comparison only three of Liverpool's players managed to break the seven miles benchmark.
Man Utd Win At A Jog?
Bolton 0-5 Man Utd: The red half of Manchester blitzed Owen Coyle's Bolton but surprisingly the average speed of the team was just 3.27mph - with only Bolton, Fulham (both 3.24mph) and Blackburn (3.22mph) registering lower averages.
Extra Mileage For A Winning Goal
Fulham 1-1 Blackburn: What does it take to get a winning goal? Well, it looks like hard yards. Fulham and Blackburn were chasing a winner in the second half of this game and both teams covered over 41 miles as they looked for that decisive goal - more second half distance than any other team in this week.
