Yup. I think something might have got lost in the news...

Liverpool agree deal to sign Naby Keita in 2018 for club-record fee - sources


Naby has a good interception rate. If he carried that over to the PL, he'd have almost 29 by now & easily qualify. However, he's still playing in Leipzig this season.

He's averaging 2.5 interceptions per game in his 7 Bundelisga matches so far this season.

Anyway, he was the only answer given with 0 Premier League Interceptions.

Naby Keita (1) - 0 Interceptions

Oh, for this question there were 15 correct answers & 37 incorrect answers. If the most popular answer hadn't gotten injured, it would have broke down a lot more evenly.

In 14 appearances last season, this guy had 8 interceptions. So far this year in 6 appearances, he has been even more deferential to the other team.

His primary skill appears to be "dueling".

Mohamed Elneny - 1 (1 interception)

Spurs appear to play a style that intentionally involves NOT taking the ball from the other team.

Last year this guy had 40 interceptions...good enough for 2nd on the team, but tied for 92nd in the league (we'll get to the team leader eventually). This year, the 26 y/o Kenyan has only played one game.

Victor Wanyama - 1 (1 interception)

Last year this player's pace would have had him right around 18 interceptions at this point of the year. This year, he got broken & has missed 2 months.

Paul Pogba - 1 (4 interceptions)

This guy had 36 interceptions in 33 games last year, & has decreased his rate even further through 11 games this year.

Héctor Bellerín - 1 (5 interceptions)

This is an old graphic, but one would be better served to have chosen his current teammate with over twice the interception rate...

Last year this 27 y/o Englishman had 25 interceptions in 26 games. This year he has 7 in 10.

Aaron Cresswell - 1 (7 interceptions)

This guy has revealed that back & achilles injuries make it impossible for him to practice. They also appear to be limiting his interceptions, as he has 7 in 8 games this season.

Dejan Lovren - 1 (7 interceptions)

After averaging 1.6 interceptions last year (a pace that would put him just under 18 this year), the Southwarkian has slowed further this season to less than an interception per game.

Ryan Bertrand - 1 (10 interceptions)

After finishing 11th in the league last year, this guy has had a disappointing start to the current season (in terms of interceptions...he did net a game winning goal in injury time against Newcastle on Saturday). He has sat out 2 games & appeared as a sub in 2 others.

Steve Cook - 1 (12 interceptions)

Among the 3 players with 13 interceptions were 2 would-be Man U aces. These players were the 2 leading interceptors for the club last year (T8th & T29th overall), but are in a 3-way tie for 3rd on their own club this season (Ashley Young).



Only 5 starts & 9 total games has likely doomed this Spaniard.



& only playing 8 games probably hurt this Ivorian.

Ander Herrera - 1 (13 interceptions)

This next player was tied for 6th last year in interceptions (tied with this season's runaway most popular choice).

This year, this New Zealander has only played 8 games, & has a lower interception rate to boot.

Winston Reid - 3 (13 interceptions)

After finishing 20th in the league in interceptions last year, this player has lowered his pace a bit further this season. Perhaps 30 is too old for intercepting?

Danny Simpson - 1 (14 interceptions)

Simpson's new teammate was tied for 25th last season, but is tied for 46th this season.

As mentioned before, Spurs aren't about that intercepting lifestyle. If you felt obligated to pick a player from that squad, this player is definitely the least incorrect, leading the team for the 2nd straight season.

Jan Vertonghen - 1 (16 interceptions)

Well, not just any random dude on Burnley works. They need to be named Steph(v)en.



After finishing tied for 14th in the league last year, this guy is 4th on his own team this year. Too much competition for interceptions obviously.

Whoever put this chart together seems to be using a different source than me, because according to mine he had 81 last year, good for tied for 8th with Ander Herrera. This year he has played every game, but has received a red card. He still averages 84 minutes per game, though, so I'll just assume it's part of Everton's general overall listlessness this season.

Idrissa Gueye - 2 (17 interceptions)

2 years ago he was everywhere. Last year he was just most places (T6th). This year he's only played 8 games. One more, & he probably gets there. Unfortunate for many of you (fortunate for many others)...
