3) COUTINHO – LIVERPOOL – 16 assists
It’s great to see our Brazilian playmaker, who’s recently signed a long-term deal, high up on this list… Since arriving at Anfield, no other Liverpool player has registered more assists than the 22-year-old, who in recent months has been our stand out offensive player. Expect more assists to come now Coutinho has Daniel Sturridge to feed up top again.
=2) Wayne Rooney – Manchester United – 17 assists
Man United’s overpaid skipper is deployed in a slightly more creative role now, as his lack of pace and drop of dribbling ability means our rival’s prefer other options as out and strikers. Still, he does it will.
