Appearance data for 2014/15 season to date: http://irish-abroad.appspot.com/MonthlyStats?month=13
We're midway through the 2014/15 season in England and Scotland, so how have the Irish players been performing across the water, and around the world?
Anthony Stokes is leading the wins, starting 17 wins this season for Celtic in the SPL, just ahead of Derby duo Richard Keogh and Cyrus Christie, and Aberdeen's Jonathan Hayes. Stokes has also been substituted more than any other player, he was withdrawn from the action in 14 of his 25 starts, while fellow striker has been introduced more than any other player, coming off the bench 17 times this season - that's six more than any other player
John O'Shea has started 11 draws for Sunderland, just ahead of Paul Green and Keiren Westwood on 10
David Forde has unfortunately started 12 losses for Millwall, just ahead of Shaun Williams and Alex Pearce, both starting ten losses so far this season
Forde's fellow Lion Alan Dunne has been shown the most yellow cards, the Millwall defender has been booked eight times in his 21 starts
Richard Keogh has started 28 of Derby County's 29 games this season, with fellow Ram Cyrus Christie in second on 27 starts. Remarkably Keogh completed 90 minutes in all but one of these, with Christie playing the whole game in each of his 27 starts
Unsurprisingly, two goalkeepers have been unused substitutes the most this season, Colin Doyle and Jack Bonham have both been left on the subs bench 27 times in 2014/15 so far. Doyle has three starts to his name, while Bonham has yet to feature. Of the outfield players, Daniel Devine is the most unused substitute, the Inverness Caledonian Thistle player has been left on the bench 17 times, and is also yet to feature for his club
Daryl Murphy and Adam Rooney have both found the net 17 times for their respective clubs. What makes Murphy's record more impressive is it does not include a single penalty, while Rooney's total includes four finishes from 12 yards. The strike duo have similar results from the games in which they scored - 10 wins and a single loss, while Murphy's goals have also contributed to two draws for Ipswich. Anthony Stokes and Andy Keogh's goals have led to wins in 100% of the games in which they scored - seven wins from seven games
