After an enthralling Premier League season, we have analysed the key stats powered by Oracle and will show you in a series of articles which players have run furthest or fastest, had the most shots or showed ruthlessness in front of goal over the course of the last 10 months, not only overall but at each of the 20 clubs.

Furthest ran

Dejan Kulusevski led the way in this statistic, having covered 13.36km during Tottenham Hotspur's 2-1 home win against Everton in December.

The Spurs midfielder was closely followed by Brighton & Hove Albion's Pascal Gross and Tomas Soucek of West Ham United, with the duo combining to claim seven of the top 10 distances covered in match.
