“I would say club [best friend] Robbo [Andy Robertson], and for international, probably Jude [Bellingham]," began the defender, speaking on Sky Sports’ The Overlap
"There was a competition [between him and Robertson on assists], but we haven’t done it for years now – I'm still unbeaten.
"I always say it’s about the quality of the assist. You can pass to someone here, you’ll turn, whip one top bin, or take on four players, score, and he’ll claim the assist. Honestly.
“Whereas I’ll play a sixty-yard pass, get the assist, and I’ll be like yeah, that’s a proper assist. Whereas he’ll play a short pass. Yeah [on his assists being better than Robertson], it’s about quality, not quantity.”
