  • Sanchez and Fellaini have a tendency to handball.

    It appears that over the course of the past four seasons, two Premier League players have stood out for falling foul of the law.

    And it is not in terms of fouls, offsides or even dives, but instead handballs.

    According to stats from our friends at WhoScored.com, Manchester United midfielder Marouane Fellaini and Arsenal forward Alexis Sanchez have committed the most handballs in the league during that time.

    Fellaini, whose contract at Old Trafford has just been extended by a year, has been blown up for handball no less than 15 times.

    As you can see below, it gets worse for Sanchez who has hanballed a league high 17 times.

    On this evidence, this pair could probably have futures in the game going in goal.
