okay, that doesn't make sense to me at all. bonucci plays basically the deepest in our squad. either he passes to szczesny or he passes to someone further up the pitch. now, these stats are suggesting that 61% of the passes bonucci makes are backwards passes. there must be something wrong with it.
this is a typical bonucci game, (defensive fuckup included

) :
according to squawka, he makes 5,06 forward passes per 90 minutes. now, in this video he makes at least 20 of them.
