Well.....

Stat's show that Tettey often makes the most passes and often makes the fewest number of passing mistakes. He often wins the ball the most too. He is good as a defensive midfielder.

Some fans seem to give more credit to attacking players who make lots of mistakes (or don't do much) than some players who do a good job in less glamorous roles.
