Azpi is Eriksen-level dangerous in that position, always seems to be accurate from there.

Have to say though, United's defending for the goal was laughable. Smalling got pulled away by Bakayoko's run, which I guess it's normal to track a runner but Jones stepped out and did nothing while Bailly was caught ball watching.

Cesar Azpilicueta has assisted Morata five times in the Premier League this season, more than any player has assisted another in 2017-18 so far.

That should so be 6. Azpi played a pin-point cross for Morata aginst Spurs which Morata somehow managed to miss. Was a brilliant ball. Anyway, I am sure there will be more. Amazing to think that majority of these assists are coming while Azpi is playing at RCB.

I'd love to know the current record amount of assists provided by a centre-back in 1 season.

Conte on Azpi.

“Azpi is a really fantastic guy and he cares a lot for the club and plays for the shirt and he played a really massive game."

Not sure about CB but the record for most assists provided by a defender in a single season is 11.

"To me, I would say that Cesar is underrated. As a defender he has got everything. He's quick, he's got that desire, passion for the game. He just wants to play football. Azpilicueta is never tired. He can run all night in every minute. He wants to play every game.

"It is great for us that we have him. He’s someone that loves the game. He is always talking to every player before games. He wakes everyone up and says we have got to go out there and win this game."

Good God, what a game by our (vice)captain! Those blocks were just something else, one of the best defenders in the league.

Real capitano.

Typical Azpi game 

[Jase 43,479]

Azpi in Premier League:

• Has played in 89 of the last 90 games
• Played the full 90 minutes in 88 of those 89 games
• Has played every single minute of the last 74 matches (record appearance for an outfield player is 164 games - Lampard)

His performance vs. Liverpool was one of the best in his CFC career. What a player.

Totally jinxed him.

Still has a 100% record as captain.

In other words, we have a 100% record when Cahill hasn't started?
