Stats are secondary to what actually happens on the pitch.....David silva besides his assist stats wouldnt be that high..yet for me David Silva is the best ever to play in the prem and certainly for city....better than KDB who was ahead of him. Id say that when playing together Silva was more influential than KDB and we miss his control of a game more than when we miss KDB....Stats was second to Kdb
Stats never tell the full story ever yet a are convenient go to for some.

Why do so many people think goals and assists are the only two stats that exist?

Im not saying they are but that is whta most people pay attention to....even the assists can be misleading.....David Silva was often the person to play the pass before the assist...the through ball to the wide player etc....He dictated the whole game yet this isnt shown in statsDavid Silva's stats were great. It's just goals and assists he didn't excel in.

Stats can be very misleading and even though Grelisg's stats are second only to KDB last year Id say their is a chasm in terms of effectiveness, control and influence of game between the two at present.

His assist stats were great weren’t they? His assists to assists (if that were measured) were off the scaleDavid Silva's stats were great. It's just goals and assists he didn't excel in.

Correct but facts are facts and with pep as his manager he will improve him.
If you look at more stats than goals and assists... then Silva does come off VERY favourably based on them.
Modern football stats are very good in aiding your "eye test", and would usually just reaffirm what you already know.
On the other end, if your "eye test" doesn't rate a player, yet the overall stats do, then to me that's a good indicator that your "eye test" has failed you.
