Too unpredictable for Potterball.
And Fulham arguably (though they didn’t play him in the Prem, it’s obviously another PL manager and coaching staff that didn’t fancy him).
Trossard is miles ahead of Knockaert. Silly
As long as he doesn't start singing
I think Trossard looks a bit heavy at times.
Too much Belgian chocolate
He was asked by the club to hit the weights he's done this he's fine. Much more difficult to knock off the ball these days.
Yes agree, but that's if he keeps hold of it
True and needs to stop looking like a kid who's had his ball taken away, but then you come full circle to knocky again.
Trossard - 3194 minutes in the PL - involved in 21 goals
Knockarert - 4290 minutes in the PL - involved in 17 goals
involved = scorer, assist, second assist

And contribution off the ball and to the rest of the team?
I saw Knockaert clear a few off the line.....
What defines a second assist? Clear pass or inadvertent touch?
Edit - does this include Leicester as well for Knockaert?

Of course other things matter as well.
As for second assist, not sure. The only site I know that counts "second assists" is the oldest Premier League stat site around, http://www.premiersoccerstats.com and I dont know how they measure it.
Does not include Leicester.
A bit selective with the stats. You can use any stats to fit an Agendas so much so that it you go to tenth assist, you could be looking at having touched the ball before half time and and the goal is scored in the second half or in the previous game
Whats the stats with assists only ?
I dont have an agenda really as I have no clue if Trossard is better than Knockaert or not, I just reacted to the "Knocky got better end product" thing as its not exactly what I've seen from the little I've seen of him and these stats support it to some extent though of course things like goal conversion and successful crosses/key passes etc would perhaps be more accurate... and more time consuming to pull out.
I am not even bothered about the stats I asked for - These are all about opinions and all very personal.
You ask people who is the best player in the PL nd you would get 1000s of different answers. You get most people claiming that De Breuyne being the best midfielder in the PL - Many would disagree.
I actually think that Ilkay Gundogan is a more influential player than De Breuyne but I don't think he gets the same praise in that side because he does a lot of what he does ''Less Spectacularly''
My opinion is nether better or worse than anyone else's - It's just my opinion.
