Mark Noble led the way again, covering 7.78 miles during the midweeks matches with only West Bromwich Albion’s James McClean covering more ground of the 220 players who started Premier League game.

Even then McLean covered just 10 metres more than the West Ham captain.

Manuel Lanzini ranked third overall, with 7.7 miles midweek with Pedro Obiang was not far behind, covering 7.42 miles.

Former Hammer Danny Gabbidon took to twitter to say this of his former teammate: “Nobes run 12.9k on the weekend and probably not far off that again tonight… four days later ! If your organised and your distances are right its much easier to get around the pitch”
