6) Manuel Lanzini, West Ham – 5ft 6in

The Argentinian forward has impressed in his second season for the Hammers, with seven goals – and has been the one to pick up the slack after Dimitri Payet forced his way out the club.

9) Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Manchester United – 6ft 5in

The veteran Swede has been a revelation since arriving at Old Trafford, despite doubts other whether he could cut it at age 35. Jose Mourinho’s favourite has 26 goals already this season.

Petr Cech, Arsenal – 6ft 5in

After more than a decade as one of the top goalkeeper’s in England, Cech finally seems to be slipping with rumours that the Gunners could be looking for a replacement this summer.

5) Nampalys Mendy, Leicester City – 5ft 6in

Mendy has replaced his former midfield partner at Nice in Leicester’s midfield, but hasn’t had quite the same impact at the King Power Stadium.

In his second season the Spaniard has been one of Chelsea’s best players, scoring 11 goals and adding nine assists in all competitions for the Premier League leaders

7) Asmir Begovic, Chelsea – 6ft 6in

The Bosnian is arguably the best No 2 keeper in the league and would start for a number of other Premier League teams – but he’s stuck behind Thibaut Courtois.

3) Aaron Lennon, Everton – 5ft 5in

The former Spurs and England winger has barely made a dent in Ronald Koeman’s plansm starting just six Prem games all season for the Toffees.

The Irish keeper has his critics and only came into the Palace team after a long-term injury to summer signing Steve Mandanda.

5) Per Mertesacker, Arsenal – 6ft 6in

The German captain was inexplicably handed a new one-year contract extension by Arsene Wenger in January – despite not yet playing a game this season.

2) Nathan Dyer, Swansea City – 5ft 5in

Dyer wanted a move away from the Liberty in January after playing just eight matches this season – he’s only started three of those.

4) Thibaut Courtois, Chelsea – 6ft 6.5in

The big Belgian is back to his very best this season. After a poor campaign last season, he has arguably been the best keeper in the league – conceding just 21 goals in 28 games and keeping

3) Peter Crouch, Stoke City – 6ft 7in

The former England striker is enjoying an Indian summer this season. After failing to score and playing just 11 matches last term, Crouch has seven goals this season and has become one of the first names on Mark Hughes’ team sheet.

2) Fraser Forster, Southampton – 6ft 7in

The England No 2 has enjoyed another excellent season on the South Coast, keeping nine clean sheets already this season fewer than only Courtois, David De Gea and Hugo Lloris.

HEIGHT has always been seen as an advantage in the hustle and bustle of the Premier League.
It seems to be a requirement for centre-backs to be at least 6ft, while goalkeepers continue to grow – with many of the division’s top stoppers standing taller than 6ft 5in.

In 2013, the 60-year-old tech mogul told NBC's Today show that 13 was the appropriate age for children to begin indulging in digital screen gadgets.

'We've chosen in our family that it's 13 where you get a phone,' the self-made billionaire explained at the time.

Despite their vast wealth, the Gates family, who lives in Lake Medina, just outside Seattle, Washington, has said they want to give their children as normal an upbringing as possible.

It was previously reported that their youngsters have to complete household chores and are given a modest amount of pocket money.

And in 2010 Gates said that he intends to give most of his $61billlion fortune away rather than hand it down.

Gates, who has become an active philanthropist since resigning as Microsoft chairman in 2014, is in many ways just a regular guy. 

The Mirror reports that during its interview with Gates, he was wearing a Casio watch worth $10. 

He also insists that he's 'big on pretty mainstream American hamburgers, McDonald's, Burger King.'

Gates and his wife, Melinda, are parents to Jennifer, 20; Rory, 17; and Phoebe, 14.

Despite the irony of Gates playing a pivotal role in the technological revolution of the digital age, he still thinks limits need to be in place for children.

'You're always looking at how it can be used in a great way – homework and staying in touch with friends – and also where it has gotten to excess,' the Microsoft founder said of smartphones and social media.

'We don't have cellphones at the table when we are having a meal, we didn't give our kids cellphones until they were 14 and they complained other kids got them earlier.'

Gates, whose current net worth is estimated to be approximately $87billion, appears to have become more rigid with age.

Bill Gates tells how he BANNED his kids from having mobile phones until they turned 14, loves McDonald's and wears a $10 Casio watch

-Microsoft founder Bill Gates did not let his kids own a cell phone until age 14 
-Gates and his wife, Melinda, are parents to three children aged 20, 17, and 14
-World's richest man says he limits amount of time kids can spend with phones
-Gates, whose current net worth is estimated to be approximately $87billion, said he wears a Casio watch worth $10 and loves McDonald's



Microsoft founder Bill Gates, the world's richest man, says that he did not permit his children to own a mobile phone until they turned 14.

Gates made the revelation during an interview on Thursday with the British newspaper The Mirror.

Not only does Gates force his kids to wait until age 14 to get a smartphone, but he also limits the amount of time they could use them before going to bed.

Smartphones are also banned from the dinner table.

'We often set a time after which there is no screen time and in their case that helps them get to sleep at a reasonable hour,' the tech titan told The Mirror
