Why - outside newly promoted teams Hull City, Coventry and Ipswich - are Sunderland once again among the bookmakers' favourites for the drop? While results and where you finish in the table are ultimately all that matter, Sunderland's underlying statistics from last season suggest repeating their success might not be so simple.

Chelsea have set a strict deadline alongside a massive price tag on Enzo Fernandez, who is heavily linked with a high-profile move away from Stamford Bridge late in the transfer window.
