It is with great sadness that Crewe Alexandra announce the passing of Recruitment Analyst Mert Tumoz. Our thoughts and prayers are with Mert’s partner Şule, daughter Neda, son Ali, and his friends and family at this devastating time. #CreweAlex



A really interesting thread about a team flying under the radar this season 👏 @BeGriffis Will Schalke continue their impressive run of form and get promoted this season? Let us know 👇

Add your surprises in the comments. Nice work, @KaiGWatson 👏

Box crashing midfielders are so valuable, below is EPL midfielders touches in the box/shots P90. Eze the clear stand out with Diego Gómez showing up really well also. Tavernier normally plays on the wing but has played centrally also to great effect. Any surprises?
