Sorry, but I don't trust stats
The assist numbers depend entirely on the striker. Eriksen appears to have 1 less assist but he has a much bigger influence in our play and our chances. You take Eriksen out of the team, and we really feel it. You take Alli out and I don't see what we miss.
Be honest and tell me when's the last time you felt we really needed Alli in the pitch (assuming he didn't start).
Whenever we play our reserve side we ask for players like Eriksen, Son to step in, not Alli.
If you take Alli out the team you don't get the most out of Kane, those two have built up a telepathic partnership over the last 2.5 years for a start. Not to mention his partnership with Eriksen, the off the ball runs, his link up play, mentality...We would miss Alli in our team more then people actually realise.
