Comments
Appearances Denis Irwin 36 293 9 Now only emergency bench player
Mark Hughes 38 291 16 Playing in remaining games will leave him one shy of 300
Points Dwight Yorke 30 196 4 Out of favour at Old Trafford but will only move if finances are right
Matt Le Tissier 33 191 0 Only one point in past two seasons and talking retirement
Stuart Ripley 34 95 2 Provided an assist in last outing but does not figure in Saints' future
Jason Wilcox 30 93 1 Still young enough but may need to move to less succesful club
Goals Dion Dublin 32 97 3 Showing his age but likely to reach three figures
Nicky Barmby 28 48 0 Appears a shoo-in but is not a regular at Liverpool and has a very high salary
Paul Merson 33 46 2 Best chance maybe to move to promoted club next season
Assists Dennis Wise 35 95 2 Unable to gain place in to-be-relegated team does not augur well
Dan Petrescu 34 49 0 Only two sub appearances this season suggests he may just miss out
Tim Sherwood 33 47 0 Currently in team but may be Tim Deadwood at year-end
Jamie Redknapp 28 47 0 Serious injury may curtail his Premiership career
Clean Sheets Mark Crossley 32 47 7 Currently Number 2 at Middlesbrough
Go Figure    16-18 March
Aston Villal 1–2 Arsenal
Dion Dublin secures his 150th point (97 goals, 53 assists) in the Premiership, the 14th player to do so
Bolton Wanderers 1–3 Derby County
With seven points in the past four matches, Malcolm Christie has more than doubled his season's output
Chelsea 4–0 Sunderland
A fourth goal as sub for Forssel but he trails West Ham's Defoe by one this year and is two shy of the single-season record of ex Blue Tore Andre Flo
Evertonl 2–1 Fulham
Everton's first two-goal game in thirteen matches. The 12 game drought, their worst ever in the Premiership, is exactly equalled by seven other clubs.
Leeds United 3–1 Blackburn Rovers
Robbie Fowler scores two right-footed goals in a Premiership game for the first time and his 14 strikes this season now matches rival Michael Owen's haul
Middlesbrough 1–2 Liverpool
Steven Gerrard becomes the first Liverpool player to reach 10 assists this season, a stat in which they sorely lag Championship rivals Manchester United(6) and Arsenal (4)
Newcastle United 2–2 Ipswich Town
Town may rue withdrawing two-goal hero Marcus Bent, as Newcastle score a late equalizer. This practice of denying players the opportunity to score a hat-trick has risen from eight occasions a year in the first five Premiership seasons to more than double in more recent years
Southampton 2–2 Leicester City
Leicester's fifteen games without victory matches Ipswich's run earlier in the year. Only Nottingham Forest ,twice, have endured longer single-season sequences
Tottenham Hotspur 2–2 Charlton Athletic
Charlton now have five wins and three draws in eight derbies this season. If they had duplicated this performance against non-London clubs they would lead the table
West Ham United 3–5 Manchester United
A great game for David Beckham as his three assists (in addition to two goals) catapult him to the top of the United assist table this season, a title he has held for the past four seasons
