Top 5 Highest Assist Makers

5. Aaron Ramsey Is One Of The Arsenal Players With Most Assists

It is a real shame to see the Welshman leave Arsenal, let alone for zero compensation when his value is the highest. Ramsey’s decade long association with Arsenal has seen him grow into a midfielder of very special skills.

He is not a traditional centre-mid who launches long balls from deep or keeps the central spot clean with timely challenges and interceptions. The 28-year-old is an intelligent athlete with a keen eye for goal. Ramsey scored a lot of important goals for Arsenal in his 371 appearances for the club. He also used to be the guy to put the finishing touches on his team’s attack, whether it was the final pass or to slot the ball in himself.

4. Denis Bergkamp

Bergkamp used to hold a passing and first touch clinic every time he stepped laced up for Arsenal. The Dutchman was a phenomenon with his silky smooth control of the ball and mouthwatering through balls.

His partnership with Thierry Henry was the most engaging to watch. The Frenchman used to lead with goals and he used to tie the entire attack together.

3. Mesut Ozil

Mesut Ozil is another player who shares the same ideology as Fabregas – assists feel better than goals. The German idolized Zinedine Zidane growing up and broke out as a sensation through the 2010 FIFA World Cup.

He carried his talents over to Real Madrid and quickly established himself as one of the best playmakers with attacking powerhouses like Cristiano Ronaldo, Karim Benzema and Angel Di Maria playing alongside him. When Arsenal signed him for £40m 6 years ago, it looked like a blessing from the Gods.

Ozil immediately adjusted to the Premier League and enjoyed a prosperous initial period at the Emirates. Unfortunately for the 30-year-old, his performances have dropped in recent times and his weaknesses have been exposed on countless occasions.

2. Cesc Fabregas

This statistic might give you a glimpse on why Cesc Fabregas is truly one of the best midfielders to have ever played for the club.

The man was a creative genius at a very young age, which is evident from him making his debut at only 16 years old for the Gunners and him being named the captain at 18. Fabregas is the pioneers of simple and yet beautiful football in the English Premier League. He is a visionary genius who can pick out pinpoint accurate passes from any corner of the pitch.

One of the most revolutionary statements of the Spaniard read, “Whenever they asked me in interviews if I preferred scoring or providing an assist, I would always say an assist. There is nothing quite like scoring a goal. Scoring goals is the most beautiful part of football, but I have always identified myself with and enjoyed providing the final ball.

“Only the people who know how to play the final pass for a goal know what it feels like, and I feel immense joy when a goal is scored from my pass. Putting the striker through one-on-one with the keeper is enormously satisfying.”

1. Thierry Henry

Thierry is not only the highest goalscorer for Arsenal in the club’s history but he is also the Gunners with the highest number of assists in the Premier League. This only represents how truly magnificent he was for the North London outfit and why he is ranked in the club’s official website of Top 50 players.

Henry was an attacking giant. The Frenchman could do everything – he was as fast as a professional sprinter, had nimble footwork, was technically astute, and was creatively a genius. The man was involved in every part of the team’s offensive force, be it free kicks, corner kicks, goals, or key passes. Watch & Bet Football Live =>
