We look at the top-scoring XI so far in Sky Sports Fantasy Football as the Premier League reaches its half way point.
Stoke City and Leicester City provide five of the team that has rattled up an incredible 1,251 points to date with Foxes duo Jamie Vardy and Riyad Mahrez proving the leading scorers with a combined total of 313 points.
Remarkably, only Arsenal's Mesut Ozil and Manchester United's Chris Smalling from the traditional leading clubs feature in a team that costs £2.5m below the £75m transfer budget.
Here are the top performing players in a 3-4-3 formation from the start of the season to the end of 2015.
Jack Butland (£4.9m)
Butland continues to shine for Mark Hughes' 'Stokealona' with eight clean sheets and three man-of-the-match performances for the Potters this season. The England international stopper has rattled up 88 points so far this season, 11 clear of nearest rival, Arsenal's Petr Cech.
Chris Smalling (£6.9m)
It's certainly not been a great season for Louis van Gaal's Manchester United but central defender Smalling has helped the Red Devils with 10 clean sheets this season in his 18 starting appearances. The England defender has also chipped in with an assist and one MOTM appearance.
Erik Pieters (£5.8m)
The versatile Stoke defender has slipped under the radar for the majority of Fantasy Football bosses and currently only figures in two per cent of teams. The former PSV defender has helped keep eight clean sheets for the Potters and but for six yellow cards could have equalled Smalling's points tally.
Scott Dann (£5.4m)
It has been a terrific start to the season for Dann's Crystal Palace, who finish the year in fifth place. The no-nonsense defender's three goals, one assist and two MOTM displays make him a popular choice for 11 per cent of Fantasy teams.
Riyad Mahrez (£6m)
The £6million-rated Foxes' winger remains the game's most popular signing and appears in 38 per cent of teams. Thirteen goals, seven assists and eight MOTM awards make the Algerian the leading scorer in the league with 160 points.
Mesut Ozil (£8.4m)
The Arsenal midfielder is certainly silencing his doubters this season and more than justifying his £8.4m valuation. The Germany international has laid on 16 goals and scored three to contribute 127 points as the Gunners end the year as Premier League leaders.
Marko Arnautovic (£5.5m)
Arnautovic is the third player from Stoke to make it into the highest scoring team. The £5.5m-rated Austrian's seven goals, including the winner in last week's 4-3 win at Everton, three assists and four MOTM displays make him one of the bargain buys of the season.
Georginio Wijnaldum (£7m)
Wijnaldum provided one of the few high spots in Newcastle's season so far by scoring four in the Magpies' six-goal thumping of Norwich earlier this season. He's added three more goals to his season's haul since then to secure the final slot in a four-man midfield.
Jamie Vardy (£7.3m)
What an incredible few months it has been for Vardy, who now holds the record for scoring in 11 consecutive Premier League matches. His 15 goals and six assists have made him a regular feature in the Team of the Week and helped Leicester to heady heights in the Premier League. Vardy is second only to team-mate Riyad Mahrez as the most popular signing this season.
Odion Ighalo (£6.5m)
Ighalo heads into this weekend's match with Manchester City with Vardy's record in his sights. The Watford man has already scored in six consecutive matches and only trails the Leicester hot-shot by four points having scored 149 to date.
Romelu Lukaku (£8.8m)
Everton's record signing has not only scored 15 times but he's also provided four assists and racked up four MOTM awards. The striker has now made his way into 29 per cent of Fantasy Football teams and it's easy to see why.
