With it being the international
break, the Premier League have
put together some interesting
statistics which will please
Chelsea supporters and likely
infuriate Gooners.
When you consider that Arsenal
had first refusal on Cesc Fabregas
last summer, when it became
clear the Spaniard was to leave
Barcelona, well, its fair to say
Arsene Wenger has made a
rather large mistake
So far this season, in just 11
Premier League games, Fabregas
has contributed nine assists for
Chelsea.
If he stays fit and continues on
this form, it is very likely Fabregas
will hit around 30 assists in
2014/2015 perhaps even 40.
The record, which is impressively
held by Arsenal legend Thierry
Henry, stands at 20 during the
2002/2003 season.
The Premier League also point
out another great stat: In fact,
the only player to exceed
Fabregass nine assists in the
opening 11 matches of a season
is the Spaniard himself, who had
10 for Arsenal in 2009/10.
However, for the rest of the
season, Fabregas, hampered by
injury, was only able to get three
more assists and never
threatened Henrys record.
Arsenal fans will be fuming if
Cesc Fabregas is crowned king
of the assists this season!
