Id say we’ve discovered to our chagrin that defences in the premier league aren’t all that bad especially if they decide to sit deep and be organised.

And if the response to that is well it’s because our attack is shit, well the only possible counter response would be…yes and is it going to be made better by someone who was playing championship level in his mid twenties. I’m sorry but that’s a big red flag for me.

And Height and strength are not necessarily one and the same, I wouldn’t call Salah lacking physical strength yet he’s only 5ft 10. Having a good low centre of gravity helps. I’d also argue that Saka is a pretty hardy player you actually literally have to double up on him and foul him to get him off the ball.

I guess I’m not that taken with the gangly centre forward that’s all elbows.
