2017/18 Co-Ord Round-up Part Six - 9th-12th
9th: Markian United (up four places on last season)
The new management team came in early in the season and brought about somewhat of a revival. Gylfi Sigurdsson didn't repay much of his (excessive?) fee but Harry Kane was still firing them in. The squad still needs a bit of tidying if the team are going to kick on.
What happened to last year's Star Player? He's very much still the Star Player.
Star Player: Harry Kane (26 goals)
10th: Mega Buck Bandits (up one)
On the surface it doesn't seem that much different from Dave but dig a bit deeper and the Bucks could be going places. The Aubameyang signing looks a good one while Zaha and Antonio both made big contributions. The boss now has the dosh to play at the pointy end of the transfer market too.
What happened to last year's Star Players? Antonio had an excellent season, Coutinho was sold for a league record £108m while Josh King didn't quite reach the same heights.
Star Player: Antonio Valencia (four goals, 15 cleans)
11th: Athletico Phoenix (down two)
Brian's woes were mostly caused by Diego Costa and Riyad Mahrez throwing toys out of their respective prams at points. Arnautovic, Wood and Cazorla all missed spells with injury while Father Time caught up with Ashley Williams and the young talents are still learning their trade.
What happened to last year's Star Player? Diego Costa went on strike and was sold in January.
Star Player: Jan Vertonghen (one goal, 13 cleans)
12th: Cheese Makers (same place)
A season of stagnation for Matthew whose campaign fizzled out. Glenn Murray excepted the strikers didn't produce enough while talisman Manuel Lanzini missed a chunk of games through injury. Young players like Robertson, Clyne and Richarlison offer some hope for the future.
What happened to last year's Star Player? Nathaniel Clyne was sidelined through injury.
Star Player: Glenn Murray (nine goals)
