I saw an article online today about a new stat that had been introduced about "Chance involvement". So not necessarily a player directly creating a chance, but a player being involved somewhere in the move which led to a chance being created.
I think David Silva was top, DeBruyne was second and possibly Aguero third, in the whole PL.
Then there was another stat about "goal involvement" so again, not necessarily the player getting the goal or the assist, but involved somewhere in the move that led to a goal being scored. I think Aguero was top of this, DeBruyne 2nd and Silva in the top 5 too.
They came up with a word for this "involvement" aspect, but I can't remember what it was. But the article was making out, this could be a new key stat for footballers, in the same way that the "assist" became more prevelant in the early 2000s.
Has anyone got a link to the article, or seen it? I can't find it anywhere online, and yes I have tried Google ;-)
