Premier League's Mr Dependables: The Lads Who Rack Up Goals and Assists Like Clockwork

Ever watched a striker fluff their lines for months, then wonder why your team can't hit a barn door? Yeah, me neither. But spare a thought for the rare breed in the Premier League who churn out 10+ goal involvements every single season, no matter the chaos around them. These are the blokes who'd score in a phone booth.

Drawing from sharp analysis by The Football Faithful on OneFootball, we've got a cracking list of players turning consistency into an art form. It's not just about one purple patch; it's six, seven, even nine years of non-stop graft. Let's crack on.

Ollie Watkins: Villa's Golden Boy from the Championship

Picture this: Aston Villa snag Ollie Watkins from Brentford back in the day, and boom – he's their all-time Premier League top scorer with 84 goals. Chuck in 35 assists (third behind Ashley Young and Gareth Barry), and you've got a forward who's hit double-digit goal involvements in each of the last six seasons.

Last weekend, he bagged the second in Villa's 2-0 stroll over West Ham, taking him to 10 for this campaign. Scouting win of the decade? You bet. Watkins is the sort of lad who'd finish top scorer even if the net was on fire.

Mohamed Salah: The Egyptian Goal Machine

If consistency had a passport, it'd be Egyptian. Mohamed Salah has notched 10+ goal involvements in every one of his nine seasons at Liverpool. He's now third on the Premier League's all-time list, behind only legends Alan Shearer and Wayne Rooney.

In 2024-25, during the Reds' title charge, he shattered the record for most in a 38-game season with a bonkers 47. Absolute production line. Salah's the fella who makes managers look like geniuses just by turning up.

Bruno Fernandes: United's Assist King

Over at Manchester United, Bruno Fernandes has normalised the ridiculous. This term, he's dishing out assists like they're going out of fashion – a league-topping 16 already, smashing the club's single-season Premier League record.

No off-days for Bruno; he's the engine room wizard who creates goals while sipping tea. His career-best haul this year proves he's not just hype – he's hardware.

Jarrod Bowen: West Ham's League Ladder-Climber

Fancy scoffing at Championship signings? Tell that to Jarrod Bowen, who West Ham lured from the lower leagues and turned into a 10+ goal involvement machine for six straight Premier League seasons.

Never dipped below in a full campaign at the London Stadium, and he's cracked 20 goals three times. Bowen's the cheeky winger who grins while burying chances, proving you don't need a mega-bucks fee to deliver.

Leandro Trossard: The Versatile Super Sub

Leandro Trossard is the wildcard here, smashing the stat across Brighton and now Arsenal. Back-to-back 10+ seasons on the south coast, then a £20m January switch to the Emirates where he fired 10 assists in his first 10 league games.

Even without a nailed-on starting spot, he's Arsenal's secret weapon. From Seagulls to Gunners, Trossard's the ultimate utility man – scores, creates, and never moans.

Why This Matters in the Mad World of the Prem

In a league where managers get sacked mid-season and wingers vanish into thin air, these five stand tall. Watkins, Salah, Fernandes, Bowen, and Trossard aren't chasing fairytales; they're living them, season after relentless season.

It's a reminder that scouting smart (hello, Watkins and Bowen) and backing winners (Salah, anyone?) pays dividends. Next time your lot sign another flop, raise a pint to these reliables. They're the difference between good and great – and in the Premier League, that's title-winning stuff.
