Scoring goals gets you glory, fame and a lot of recognition but the genuine football fans understand the importance of assists as well. The providers often get overshadowed by the imposing effects of the goalscorer but it is fair to say that assist count does matter at the highest level.

The EPL has witnessed some of the greatest players of all time take the centre stage with sheer technical masterclass and amongst all those legends there is one guy who goes by the name of Ryan Giggs, the most decorated footballer in the history of the Premier League.

The Welshman has won numerous trophies with the Red Devils but there is one record that might stay to his name for a long time and that is his tremendous tally of 162 assists in the EPL.

The winger from Wales leads his adversaries by a huge margin as the next man in this glorious list is Cesc Fabregas with 111 assists to his name, followed by Wayne Rooney at 3rd with 103.

Giggs is probably Manchester United’s greatest player of all time and his remarkable records justify his position in the history books.
