Debatable stat or lack of recognition?

Ben Chilwell has played 5 consecutive league games for Leicester over the spring period and according to Premier League Power rankings (a points table compiled of 32 different statistical snippets which factor in point-weighting dependent upon player position with regard to different values) over this period he is the top performing player for us and 16th best player in the league.

It has left me wondering if I have been a bit too harsh with him or if attacking statistics have masked defensive frailties...

Decent defensive performance can be difficult to quantify in stats: How do you rank good positioning, covering or identification of danger? Get yourself in the right place and you won't necessarily even get the chance to put in a crunching, ball-winning challenge.

What I do think will have counted is the two assists he's secured in the last few matches. To which I say: Good, and more of the same please.

I like him. Wouldn't mind him at LFC got him if Moreno leaves.

Guy has been a defensive horror show under Puel and Dunge is right - there’s no stat that’s going to show up how many teams he loses the ball in key positions which then contribute to us indirectly or directly conceding goals

Great going forward - plenty to work on defensively

Just seen the Ronaldo overhead kick goal from last night- no better than Rodney Fern 1969 vs Birmingham City!
