77: Hérelle the rock

Christophe Hérelle is the defender with the best blocked runs ratio in Ligue 1 this season, amongst those players who have faced at least 15 attempted dribbles  (77% - 34/44).

Arriving in the summer of 2018, Hérelle quickly cemented himself as one of the pillars of the Nice squad. With 2,487 minutes of game time in L1, he is Patrick Vieira’s 3rd most used player in the league, behind Dante (2776') and Benitez (2610').
