ISL 2017: 4 stats that show Dimitar Berbatov is Kerala Blasters' best player
Kerala Blasters have struggled so far in ISL 2017, failing to win in their 3 matches so far. They have also struggled going forward managing just 1 goal in the 3 matches. But the performances of their star signing Dimitar Berbatov has been the bright spot so far.
Despite the fact that the former Manchester United man is yet to score a goal, he has performed quite well so far. Here, we take a look at some of the stats that proves the genius called Berbatov still has it in him.
Shooting
While Kerala Blasters have struggled going forward managing just 1 goal in 3 matches so far, Dimitar Berbatov has more than done his bit to help Kerala Blasters cause offensively. The Premier League veteran has been remarkably efficient with his shooting, hitting the target with all of his 3 attempted shots.
His efficiency is in stark contrast with the performances of ISL’s top scorer Iain Hume, who despite playing as a forward has attempted just 2 shots in 3 matches and has offered no threat to the opposition defences. If Kerala’s fellow forwards replicate Berbatov’s efficiency while shooting their goal scoring problems will lighten up considerably.
