One to watch: Lee Hendrie

Lee Hendrie is on fire at the minute. The Aston Villa misfit has almost single-handedly turned Stoke City's season around since joining them on loan. Hendrie was talked into joining the Potters by his dad, who is friends with Stoke boss Tony Pulis.

Since joining the club at the end of September, Hendrie has bagged three goals in five games and has pretty much been the heartbeat of the team. Expect a few Premiership clubs to make a move in January if Hendrie doesn't extend his stay at the Britannia Stadium.
