They are past performance, I think you would get a pretty good
team picking from the top 25 or so, you could probably
pick most of the arsenal first team. well 9 anyway.

Duff has moved up to 5th place. He has got almost 0.4 points in the last 2 games, both games Chelsea only scored a combined total of 1 goal and Duff wasn't involved in it. It just shows the work he's putting in defensively and offensively and if he started Chelsea's first 6 league matches he'd be up there ahead of Terry, Johnson and Lampard and into at least 2nd place. It also proves my point that Lampard doesn't do enough of the dirty work (tackling, putting opposition under pressure, etc.) as he has almost 3 times as many assists as Duff, more goals but is still only 0.6 points ahead after playing the equivelent of almost 7 matches more than Duff.

Roy Keane has also take a leap up the charts to 18,
I think he was 32ish last time.

Plenty of midfielders in that chart, but short on forwards and defenders.
