Kolarov in 29 games has four goals to Clichy's zero and eight assists to Clichy's four, despite Clichy having 38 appearances. If you want to argue Clichy is preferable overall, as he's a better defender, fine, but those sniggering at the thought of Kolarov being the better attacking option, wind your neck in because the facts across, not just this season, but their entire careers, show Kolarov is twice the attacking threat Clichy is.
