You can get credited an assist for passing to someone 30 yards away from goal and they then smack it into the top corner. That’s not creating a big chance.
“A 'big chance created' is defined as providing an opportunity where the receiving player would reasonably be expected to score and manages to get a shot away. These usually occur in one-on-one scenarios or from very close range.”
For comparison De Bruyne has created 30 big chances so far this season, six times more than all our midfielders combined.
The one comfort we can take is that Jose binned off Lukaku, De Bruyne & Salah for no good reason. Imagine how good Chavski would be if they'd kept those guys....
The odd thing is, for all our trouble with this squad, a KDB type would transform this team.
