The best right-wingers in the world might be the most difficult task of any position on the pitch. Historically, a certain Argentine has been king of lists ranking the best players in the world, but as Lionel Messi winds down, there are certainly plenty of stars waiting to assume his crown, with the top half-dozen sides in the world each having an elite star in that position.

Seven of the nine matches in Ligue 1 last weekend finished 1-0, notes Liam Togher. That's 78% of the games. Has there ever been a more common instance of one specific scoreline in a single gameweek? This is a question that George Graham would love, and Chris Roe has done the hard yards to find an example that can beat the above though, alas, it doesn't involve the Arsenal team of the late 1980s who made 1-0 scorelines famous.
