Eriksen pips Ozil and Bruyne as most creative Premier League player

Tottenham Hotspur star Christian Eriksen created the most chances in the Premier League this season with 112.

Manchester City’s Kevin De Bruyne finished in second place with 103 chances, while Arsenal midfielder Mesut Ozil was in third having laid on a century of chances for his team-mates.

Eriksen had a slow start to the campaign, but was outstanding as the season progressed. The Denmark international weighed in with eight goals, while he had an impressive average pass accuracy of 80%.

Capable of performing effectively as an attacking midfielder or out wide, Eriksen possesses excellent technical ability and is a superb dribbler who is capable of weaving his way past opponents with ease.

De Bruyne, meanwhile, caught the eye for City, completing 94 of the 114 take-ons that he attempted.

Ozil was criticised in some quarters for his performances this season, but the Germany international posed an increased threat in front of goal himself as he scored eight times in the Premier League.
