‘Actually crazy’: Chelsea fan names key stat Dembele is twice better at than any Blues player

“Creating high-quality chances from open play is one of the hardest things to do as a winger,” Blues fan account Expected Chelsea tweeted.

“There is no one who does it better than Ousmane Dembele right now. What a ridiculous player.

“Expected Assists per 90 [minutes]:

“Dembele’s xA is better than any 2 of Chelsea’s attackers combined. It’s actually crazy.”

Expected assists is a stat that measures how likely a pass will lead to a goal. t does not depend on whether the goal was scored as it measures the quality of the given pass.

Basically, what it shows is that Dembouz is extremely good at creating chances that are easy for other players to convert.

Chelsea keep getting linked with a move for the Frenchman. They’d be landing a fantastic player if they manage to get it over the line.
