"?Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas has become the quickest player to reach 100 Premier League assists.
The 29-year-old spent eight years with Arsenal, racking up numerous assists before joining Chelsea, with a three year spell at Barcelona in between.
He has found his first team opportunities limited so far this season due to the form of Nemanja Matic and N'Golo Kante in central midfield, but Fabregas has featured more regularly in recent months and impressed during Chelsea's 4-2 victory over Stoke.

While the midfielder will need to rack up a further 63 assists to overtake Giggs, he is just one behind Rooney and three behind Lampard.
