Erling Haaland is top of the table for goals scored (11 this season). He doesn’t get too involved in the build-up play but is ruthless in the final third. The 22-year-old has hit the target with 17/27 of his shots and has scored from 40.7% of them.

Kevin De Bruyne is top of the table for assists made (6) and is second in the table for chances created (3.6 per game on average). He’s the best playmaker in the top-flight and is contributing a goal a game.

Rodri is top of the table for most passes made (92.4 per game on average) and turns over the ball 1.9 times per game on average (tackles and interceptions). John Stones is top of the table for pass competition (96.8% per game on average), so he’s one of the best ball-playing defenders in the league.
