A winning team needs its individuals to perform at the top of their game, and statistics show that is exactly what is happening at Arsenal right now.

Using the Actim Index - the official player rating system of the Premier League which calculates a player's effectiveness - Arsenal have four of the best 10 performers in the division.

That includes the top-rated player in Cesc Fabregas as well as Emmanuel Adebayor, Robin van Persie and Gael Clichy.

With two strikers, a midfielder and a defender rated so highly, Arsenal appear strong all over the pitch.
