2. Steven Gerrard – 99 (LA Galaxy)
It is quite an irony that the former Liverpool captain retired from English football with one assist shy of the magical number. Steven Gerrard, since making his PL debut for Liverpool in 1998, has played as a second striker, right winger and holding midfielder, and central midfielder. He made 496 premier league appearances, notching 120 goals for his team.
Steven Gerrard is considered as one of the best player of his generation, and the most peculiar fact is, he is the only player in this list without a premier league winner’s medal. He came close to the title in 2013-14 season but Liverpool ended up being the runner’s up as Manchester City won the league title.
