It’s only been 5 weeks so far, but I think these stats are quite a good gauge to see just how heavily players are involved with their respective teams.
Of course penalty takers who have had a penalty so far will receive a boost from that, but I guess that is only another good indicator of points potential.
Thanks for reading! Hopefully some interesting numbers here!
