Three of the top five goalscorers in the 2012-13 Premier League feature in the top five for most shots on target, which is as follows: Gareth Bale 73 shots, Luis Suarez 72, Robin van Persie 65, Demba Ba 54, Romelu Lukaku 47. Just a reminder of the number of Prem goals scored by van Persie, above, Suarez and Bale: 26, 23 and 21 respectively.

It happened most recenly in the Bundesliga. Kaiserslautern won Germany's top two divisions in successive seasons, becoming champions of the country in 1997-98 when they pipped defending champs Bayern Munich for the title. In the previous season the Red Devils had finished 10 points clear at the top of 2.Bundesliga.

The closest I can come up with since the Second World War was at the end of the 1973-74 season when Leeds won the league title, Liverpool finished second and Tottenham were 11th. All three clubs' notable and highly successful managers left at the end of the campaign: Leeds's Don Revie went on to manage England, while the Reds' Bill Shankly and Spurs' Bill Nicholson, above, both retired.

Santi Cazorla with 11 assists; Eden Hazard 11; Carlos Tevez 8; Bryan Ruiz 7; Jonathan De Guzman 6; Jay Rodriguez 5; Luis Suarez 5.

Fabulous question! The man you're looking for is Les Sealey. He featured regularly in his first spell at Old Trafford, including a 1991 League Cup final defeat to Sheffield Wednesday and the 1991 Cup Winners' Cup final victory against Barcelona. He was then transferred to Aston Villa before returning to Manchester United on a free transfer as understudy to Peter Schmeichel (thanks to Fred the Red and Woody in Swindon for pointing out that Sealey and Mark Bosnich are the only players Sir Alex Ferguson has ever re-signed). In his second spell, Sealey played only two games - coming on in an FA Cup quarter-final against Charlton after Schmeichel was sent off, and starting the 1994 League Cup final, which United lost 3-1 to Villa.

Superb question Kev - a cracking bit of trivia! The three men in question are Peter Osgood, Tony Woodcock and Ian Storey-Moore.

Hail Eric Cantona, winner of titles with Marseille in 1991, with Leeds in 1992, and with Manchester United in 1993. In all, the flamboyant Frenchman won seven league championship medals, four of them with United. Another, and less obvious, player to achieve the feat is Alexei Mikhailichenko, who won titles with Dynamo Kiev, Sampdoria and Rangers from 1990-92 (thanks Martin from Doncaster).

This old chestnut eh? I get this one a lot and in previous years there were seven - Michael Owen, Lassana Diarra, Boudewijn Zenden, Mark Hughes, Nicolas Anelka, Emmanuel Petit and Jermaine Pennant. More recently we can of course add Fernando Torres and Yossi Benayoun to the list to make it nine.
