Bukayo Saka is the most relied-upon player in the #PremierLeague.

He has generated 18.5% of Arsenal's open play shot creating actions, most in the league.

There is nobody in the squad, nor available via transfer, that can replace his contributions.

#MUFC progressive pass tallies this season:

➡️ First 11 #PremierLeague games: 40.7 per 90

➡️ In Amorim’s two PL matches: 23.0 per 90

➡️ Vs. Bodø: 77

Not sure what to make of this, but an interesting trend to monitor.

Facundo Buonanotte might be the #PremierLeague "Most Valuable Player" so far this season.

He is the only player to contribute more than 30%+ of both his team's npxG and xAG per 90.

An argument to be made Liverpool has both the best first and second choice GK (Alisson/Kelleher) and right back (Trent/Bradley) in all of Europe.

Unreal quality in the squad.

Transfer rumors rarely make sense analytically.

Milos Kerkez being Liverpool's long term Andy Robertson replacement at left back is an exception.
