I really hope this is true. Makes Merlin leaving that little more bearable.

Saw a tweet today which showed at least 25 other potential assists that were created by Kev which were either missed or saved with Raz and Gabby being the main culprits. He no doubt leads the league in that category as well!

Just which he had the skill and vision of Hendo

If those fuckers up front, and I mean you Aguero, and you Sterling, and you as well Mahrez, and let's not forget those kids, Foden and Jesus, had shifted their arses, The Son of Drongen could have doubled his tally and left the record unbeatable. The buggers were probably on a work-to-rule and were waiting for Eddie to smack in a couple. Mind, those bastards down the Dodgy Dubious Goal Committee would have chalked most of 'em.

Best news of the season, if true. If he signs a five yearer, it must surely encourage any other players we may require to want to come here. What professional, at the top of his game, wouldn’t want to play with this genius?

Yes totally agree. When Kev is gone in 5-6 years city will be the nr 1 in the world.

Some of these misses are absolutely shocking tbf. With a clinical striker who could stay fit all season he could easily get 30+ assists in the league.

They do beggar belief. I think I could still score half of them.

That has wound me up. Especially the ones against the dippers and rags. KDB is breaking the record next season.

i knew I’d be somewhat irritated watching this. Most of them were clear cut chances. That outside foot pass was delicious. Thought it’d be buried. Sometimes it’s criminal how much the lads miss. Nonetheless, they still play some lovely football. Just need them to be killers in the box.

 

[Goater=Legend]

Just annoying watching that. We miss so many chances every game

Players to get 15 assists in a season.

20 - KDB (19/20), Henry (02/03)

19 - Ozil (15/16)

18 - KDB (17/18), Fabregas (14/15), Lampard (04/05)

17 - Fabregas (07/08)

16 - KDB (16/17)

15 - Cantona (92/93), Le Tissier (94/95), McManaman (95/96), Beckham (98/99), Pires (01/02), Silva (11/12), Eriksen (15/16), Sané (17/18), Hazard (18/19)


What do you notice? Only 2 players have done it more than once. KDB is the only one to do it 3 times, and they've come across 4 seasons where the one time he missed out was when he missed most of the season from injury.


Seeing people miss chances is annoying, but he will be back up there next season as well, and the one after.
