2. First player to reach 50 assists in Europe
While his goal scoring exploits in Europe are legendary, he is the king of assists too in the Champions League. He is the all time top scorer of the competition and is still going strong. He was the first player ever to break the 100 goal barrier in Europe and could be heading for more milestones in Europe.
While most people have had an issue with him being too selfish and not passing the ball enough to his teammates, the stats suggest otherwise, at least in Europe. He leads the way in Europe with 42 assists, 2 of which have come this season with Juventus. Given his role in Juventus XI is more on the flanks with Mandzukic running down the middle, you expect him to break the 50 assist barrier in the coming seasons.
