Assists are overrated. The "assist" to Pedris solo goal counts as an assist.
People used to compare Ronaldo's playmaking to Messi's just because the former racked up a ton of assists.
It's an overrated stat for excel spreadsheets enthusiasts. USe your eye.
World class forwards should be scoring goals, not just sitting on the sidelines spamming crosses.
Once he starts adding 30 goals a season alongside those assists per matches, hell warrant those wages.
My man Laplacian trying to COPE really hard after Dembouz's explosion under Xavi.
"Assists are overrated" coming from a guy who was barricaded - since FOREVER - in every debate on any player, behind only the two old and pre-Analytics stats (goals and assists), while he refused to take seriously and dismissed all the sophisticated stats from analytics I (and others) were posting to support our arguments.
"use your eye" good advice, maybe you can turn it towards yourself, and see that Dembele is the most dangerous and creative player of this team.
Anyone who has eyes has already admitted so on this platform, but you still stubbornly refuse..
Then, the ridiculous double-standards again:
You never said "use your eye" to say anything ever remotely critical of Messi limiting the team in every possible way while dragging his corpse on the pitch the last 2 seasons, and was quick to throw goals and assists there against critical voices.
Eye test?
