If he passes 9 times out of 10 how come he gets so few assists.
Cesc has already got more assists this season than Iniesta for the whole of last season.
Actually getting the direct assists is the hardest thing, how many times do you hear the commentator say all that was missing is the final pass. Maybe Cesc's positioning is extremely good and reads the game so well in order to be in a position to make the final pass, something which Iniesta lacks.Maybe cause he doesn't care about getting the direct assist? Maybe he's going to pass the ball to somebody who is in a better position to provide the assist? Did that ever cross your mind? If you completely rely on stats to judge players then you really are naive.
Yeh i guess so, i agree, so i guess iniesta is better.

To be able to do what Cesc is doing playing top quality defense splitting passes in a league where the defenses are tough and well organised and where time and space is at an absolute premium is just amazing.
Based on current form Cesc is by far the best midfielder in the world, no one comes even close and is a strong contender for world player of the year.
