Kevin de Bruyne has struggled with injuries this season and some Manchester City fans think he upsets the balance of the team.

But there is one thing you cannot deny; he knows how to assist his teammates.

His assist for Rúben Dias against West Ham took him to 11 assists this season, putting him level with Harry Kane at the top of the Premier League charts.

But not only did he level Harry Kane – De Bruyne actually cemented his place in the top Premier League assisters of all time.

162 – Ryan Giggs
111 – Cesc Fàbregas
103 – Wayne Rooney
102 – Frank Lampard
94 – Dennis Bergkamp
92 – Steven Gerrard
90 – David Silva
84 – James Milner
80 – David Beckham
77 – Kevin De Bruyne

That’s some elite company he’s joined. David Beckham should be worried.
