17 | Kevin De Bruyne - 2022/23 Performances

[SebastianBlue]

Kev should have had five assists in the Soton game alone.

 

[Goater=Legend]

He should of beaten that assist record by now, hes had seasons like this one where he'd be at least 30.

Looked like he said "I should've had four today" to Jack towards the end haha.

Haha, I mentioned this exact exchange in the match thread.

 

[PragueBlue]

Started very poorly and usually when that happens, it sets the tone for the rest of his performance but today he started to come to life the last 10 mins of the first half and superb 2nd half.

The ginger prince is back at full strength.

Beware Bayern.

 

[Xhavenjoe]

Congrats to KDB on 100 Premier League assists.

1. Ryan Giggs 162
2. Cesc Fabregas 111
3. Wayne Rooney 103
4. Frank Lampard 102
5. Kevin De Bruyne 100

What sort of assists was Giggs giving.

I wish they would change the focus from assists (entirely dependent on the finishing skills of the scoring player and a lot of luck) to big chances created (especially per 90), as that is a much better metric to rate creative players.

By that metric Kev is one of the best midfielders the world has ever seen.

What sort of assists was Giggs giving.

Assisting his brother’s missus with the washing about 60 times, allegedly.

 

[Chi-town blues]

With out blue specs i honestly think in terms of footballing iq ,kdb is up there with messi .

Heres the stat that shows Kev clear as the best playmaker in the premier league.

Here are the official all-time big chances created stats in the Premier League since Opta began tracking the metric.

Kev is arguably the best creative midfielder in Premier League history, and arguably up there with the best in the world.

What a footballer.

[Withnail]

Incredible player and there has been some transformation in form from earlier in the season. He is right on it at the moment and his telepathic relationship with Erling is lovely to see and bodes well for the rest of the season.

 

[Silva2021]

Will end up PL 2nd top assist record.

Shame who got the first but anyone with eyes can see the difference with number of games.

The best attacking midfielder to play in England for me.

 

[FantasyIreland]

Sloppy first half in the main but still managed to create the difference.

Second half,along with Jack,ran the show.

Hopefully still plenty left for Tuesday.
