Leighton Baines

[Jags..class]

No.

Better than ever.

He evolved, he not reliance on Pienaar anymore, he not a two man partnership anymore.

 

[Furey1878]

4 assists in the last 3 league games for him.

6 so far in the Prem, second only to Sigurdson and Fabregas who have 7.

Think he's on about 9-10 assists in all comps, too.

 

[daz4matty]

Back to his best nobody better in his position in this league.

 

[Wat Tyler]

Exceptional today.

 

[Christiffa25]

Exceptional today.

Agreed.

We seem to hold the reigns in on him a lot these days tho IMO. The last half hour today he was unstoppable, when given the liscence to attack.

 

[orly]

No better full back pairing in English football and arguably the best pair in Europe; certainly top 5

 

[collymcd]

Imagine how much money he's making from his assist bonus in his contract, assuming he has one of course

 

[Gwladys St. Glory]

Never lost the faith and fought his corner the whole time chumps were trying to offload him last summer...my dogg.

Boss. Has he got the most assists for a defender in the top 4 leagues? Give me a moment while I answer my own question.

 

[maccavennie]

Perfect performance. It was that good, if the bible ever gets re written Baines will play some part in it I'm sure. 2nd half he just went into overdrive and took the absolute pss

 

[Michaelcoyb]

Im back,

*drum rolls hoping to build anticipation...

He has more assists than any other defender in the 4 big leagues!

 

[mrb85]

An amazing second half performance. On a number of occasions you could see the locals sat in the side stands applauding him for his cleverness in getting out of tight situations and for his brilliant runs.

 

[loooweee]

I cannot stop changing my desktop background today!

 

[Furey1878]

I read before that he's two assists off being the all time leading assister for a defender in the PL era.

Note - CBA looking for the source of that info.
