10 players with the most assists in Premier League history

#8. Teddy Sheringham – 76

The first Manchester United player in this list Teddy Sheringham is a forward who peaked late in his career. The 50-year-old has played for a host of Premier League clubs. Starting out with Millwall where he spent a majority of his career he went on to play for the Red Devils at the age of 30 and even won the treble under Sir Alex Ferguson.

Sheringham was a prolific goalscorer in his heydey but was also very good at finding the perfect pass for teammates. His overall ability and intelligence of the game prompted Sir Alex to snatch him from Tottenham Hotspur in 1997.

Although he only managed 31 goals in 104 appearances, the goals he scored were normally of very high importance. He returned to Spurs three years later for a second spell which lasted 2 seasons.

He finally ended his career at Colchester United at the ripe old age of 42.
