We’re now in to the business end of the season and there’s still so much to play for across Europe.

Liverpool are back on top of the Premier League table with victory at Fulham, Manchester City’s comeback victory over Swansea in the FA Cup means they’re still on for an unprecedented quadruple and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s honeymoon period as caretaker Manchester United boss appears to be over.

That’s just in England. On Sunday, Lionel Messi produced yet another fine display in Barcelona’s 4-1 victory at Real Betis. In doing so, the Argentine ensured that while Cristiano Ronaldo no longer plays in Spain, the debate over who is best between the two world class stars rages on thanks to his latest record.

Everyone loves a stat and there were so many interesting ones to come out of the weekend. So here’s a whole load for you to impress your mates with this weekend. The Messi stat may also have you questioning whether Ronaldo should now be considered the best out of the two…

Milner On Point

Liverpool’s James Milner extended his Premier League record of never losing a game in which he’s scored – it now stands at 51 games (W40 D11 L0).

Hazard Drawing Blanks on Merseyside

Chelsea’s Eden Hazard has now failed to score in each of his seven Premier League games at Goodison Park – his most appearances at a single away venue without finding the net in the competition.

Kings of Norway

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer (91) is the only Norwegian player to score more Premier League goals than Bournemouth’s Joshua King (41).

Brilliant Brighton

Hammers Continue Impressive Run

West Ham are unbeaten in 17 Premier League games in which they have scored a goal since a 3-1 defeat at Arsenal in August.

Honeymoon Period Over For Ole

Pickford’s Record

Everton’s Jordan Pickford (25 years 10 days) became the fifth youngest English goalkeeper to make 100 Premier League appearances – after Scott Carson, Joe Hart, Ian Walker and Paul Robinson.

Not Fulham’s Saviour

Scott Parker became the first Fulham manager to lose his first three Premier League games in charge since Roy Hodgson in January 2008.

Mr. West Ham
