TOP TEN ASSISTS 2010-11

6. Andres Iniesta for Seydou Keita (Barcelona V Real Betis, January 12th, 2011)

This is seriously amazing. Andres Iniesta looks like he can’t go anywhere but then he just scoops the ball up really high in the air and it lands straight on Seydou Keita’s head. Ingenious stuff.

7. Adel Taarabt for Wayne Routledge (QPR V Coventry, January 23rd, 2011)

This is pretty snappy too. Taarabt curls in an amazing cross with the outside of his right boot for Routledge to run in and finish. Real nice. Let’s see if he can do that in the Premiership next season though.

8. Luis Suarez for Dirk Kuyt (Liverpool V Man United, March 6th, 2011)

This should probably really be Luis Suarez’s goal but then it wouldn’t have made the list. This kind of skill (an insane mazy dribble) ensures that Suarez probably won’t be remembered solely for that handball last summer.

9. Andres Iniesta for Pedro (Barcelona vs Real Madrid, May 3rd, 2011)

Iniesta threads the ball through the eye of the needle to leave Pedro one on one with Iker Casillas in the Champions League tie between Barcelona and Real Madrid.

10. Manwlis Skoufalis for Dimitris Sialmas (Pas Giannina V Ethnikos, May 8th 2011)

This is the kind of assist you only dream about and could be one of the goals of the season, even though it was scored in the Greek second division. Just check it out, it’s awesome.
