Football fans may have an idea about who has been their club's most influential player this season. Goal records, assists and clean sheets are all metrics used to assess a campaign - but what about points?
The most important Premier League statistic rarely gets used when analysing individuals. Could this be used to pick out who has been an unsung hero for their side? You do not need to be a genius to work out the importance some have on their club's points tally. Erling Haaland, for example, is the division's top scorer with 18 strikes.
But those goals are not enough to place him at the top of City's points-per-game charts. In fact the player who does may take you by surprise...Likewise, there are many stars receiving criticism this season despite making the list. Other nominees include those who performed well, only to get injured - leading to their team suffering a downturn in form.
