Lucas Leiva has made more tackles in the Barclays Premier League than any other player this season.
Eight challenges against Manchester City took the Brazilian's total to 139 for the 2010-11 campaign, according to Opta stats.
That's an average of a tackle every 16.7 minutes.
Lucas has played 41 games for Liverpool this term - more than any other player except Martin Skrtel (43) and Pepe Reina (44).
Last month the club rewarded his fine form with a new long-term contract.

Top passer last season, top tackler this. Mad that the lad still gets stick.
