Which Chelsea player has covered the most mileage in the Premier League so far?

According to data released by the EA Sports Player Performance Index, Cesc Fabregas has covered the most mileage out of all the players in the Premier League. Tomorrow at Newcastle, he will need to do the same!

I have to admit at being surprised that it was Fabregas as I personally thought it would be Nemanja Matic but our Serbian midfielder comes second to Fabregas as below:

player_known	team	age	games	Metres	Miles
Cesc Fàbregas	Chelsea	27	14	164,081	101.96
Nemanja Matic	Chelsea	26	14	162,906	101.22
Jake Livermore	Hull City	25	14	161,122	100.12
Ki Sung-Yueng	Swansea City	25	14	159,399	99.05
Steven N'Zonzi	Stoke City	25	14	156,525	97.26
Gylfi Sigurdsson	Swansea City	25	14	155,787	96.80
Morgan Schneiderlin	Southampton	25	13	151,730	94.28
Daryl Janmaat	Newcastle United	25	14	150,763	93.68
Jack Colback	Newcastle United	25	13	150,661	93.62
Dusan Tadic	Southampton	26	14	150,292	93.39

Having received plenty of plaudits for his assists so far this season, Fabregas is top of the pile having covered the most ground over the course of the fourteen games played so far.

As I have said, with Nemanja Matic absent tomorrow, Fabregas will need to ensure he does the same to ensure we get the right result and keep our unbeaten run going!

What do you think of the stat above? Are you surprised it's Cesc?
