Top 5 passers in Europe so far this season

1) Xavi – 622 completed passes

Xavi is Europe’s modern pass master and it is no surprise that he tops this list even so early in the season. With a fantastic 622 completed passes already this season it’s clear to see exactly who makes Barca tick.

On average the Spaniard has completed an incredible 95 passes per match, with a mean accuracy of 93%. These figures are truly outstanding and it’s quickly becomes evident at just how much of an impact he has in La Liga, especially with a Squawka Performance Score of 484 points.

In total, Xavi has accounted for 13.2% of Barcelona’s total number of passes, and with 63.1% of this contribution moving the ball forward, it’s obvious why the Spanish giants are such a threat in attack.
