It can be a little easy to get bogged down in the negative aspects of the beautiful game nowadays. Inflated wages, off-field issues and the increasing role of player power within the sport often cast a dark shadow over, what should be, an entertaining family spectacle.

Stories surrounding racism have come to the fore this term, with John Terry awaiting a court hearing, and Luis Suarez serving a lengthily ban, as well as misbehaviour away from the field of play have been rife this term, as the darker side of the game has been making the headlines all too regularly.

However, there has been plenty to be positive about this season, with entertaining football and great goals aplenty for viewers of the Premier League.

This list looks at the 15 highlights of the season so far, celebrating the good aspects of the game we love.
