As the Premier League pauses for the FIFA World Cup 2022, we are looking at some of the numbers behind the season so far.
Best dribblers
Not surprisingly, wingers dominate the top 10 players for the most dribbles completed, with Marcus Tavernier the leader with 30 dribbles completed.
The AFC Bournemouth player is two ahead of Gabriel Martinelli, who is one of three players from Arsenal in the top 10.
One of the other Arsenal players is forward Gabriel Jesus, whilst Joao Cancelo is the only defender on the list. He has completed 23 dribbles as an advanced full-back as part of Pep Guardiola's tactics at Manchester City.
