Top 5: Players with most all-time Premier League assists

2. Cesc Fabregas (Arsenal, Chelsea) – 111

When Cesc Fabregas made his Premier League debut as a 16-year-old at Arsenal he brought a way of playing that had not really been seen in the English game before.

The fresh-faced teenager was all about possession, keeping the ball to tire the opponent down before playing the ultimate killer pass, of which he played 111 of in the Premier League.

As well as working out well for Spain, who he helped win two European Championships and the World Cup, he lit up Highbury, the Emirates and Stamford Bridge with some of his passing masterclasses.

After failing to win the title in his time at Arsenal, the playmaker joined Chelsea in 2014 and lifted the trophy twice in four seasons before departing for Monaco earlier this month.
