I know you're a massive advocate of stats based analysis, nothing wrong with that per se. But if Lennon was to cross the ball and it was successful, yet the keeper makes a blinding save then its not his fault for not recording the assist.
I think that is what I'm trying to say, it sounds right in my head. Basically a winger can put in 100 successful crosses yet get no assists? Got to look at the bigger picture.
I like(d) Lennon but for me the way he let Hazard or whoever it was run away from him without effort at Chelsea away after we controlled the first 20 minutes signalled the end for him I think. He didn't look bothered at all. He's given us some brilliant memories and like Kaboul, will be missed.
