    Assists

    Based on fantasy football, assists are hugely important for points. But for me an assist is a pass directly before a goal. So, a corner headed in by someone is an assist. A pass into the box hit first time by the striker is an assist.

    Today aguero got an assist (as did Bernardo Silva) for a pass that ended up being the last touch of the player who didn't score.

    When silva passed to Ageuro, Aguero then had 3 touches before firing it home. Not an assist for me. Similarly the reverse, when Ageuro assisted a goal for silva. Several touches later and its a goal. Not an assist.

    Thoughts???

    So aguaro should have the assist for assisting himself?

    Not every goal has an assist is what I'm saying. If you get a pass, run past a couple of defenders, have a few touches and score then nobody assisted

    I know what you mean Sam. I guess it's hard to work out any other method. It would be frustrating if you only got points if the striker hits the ball 1st time though.
