4) James Milner – 7/10
Due to Jordan Henderson’s injury, Milner has captained Liverpool more often than not so far this term, showing just how much of a bargain he was having acquired him for free from City. No player has covered more ground in the Premier League than the combative midfielder (via Sky Sports) who opened his goal account at the weekend against Villa with an arrowed left-footed shot. We’d likely have given him an 8/10, but he’s been unable to create moments of quality when the chips have been down in certain matches.
