easier to make a progressive pass from cm than 10 or part of the front three.
i'd welcome lo celso starting but i don't think that stat in that context proves much.
phillips and devine both starting for plymouth in their relegation decider, big game for them.
edit: devine played 83 mins, phillips 90. plymouth won 1-0 to stay up.
that's slightly misleading as madueke has only played 700 minutes to johnson's 1900.
he does need to be more decisive where it matters but i'd put the two on a similar level when it comes to potential.
at our peak(16-17) we were ravaging teams and putting games out of reach before half-time. that was with a front three of eriksen, dele and kane. not much dribbling or pace there.
eze and olise are much better rounded and more complete footballers than nico williams, i wouldn't even put them in the same category.
city haven't had the style of player you're talking about for years, now they have one in doku who hasn't really contributed much. these players are ok as a...
extrapolate werner and johnson's stats over a season and multiple competitions then they're probably pretty similar, they've also forced a few own goals that don't show up in the stats but are just as valuable as an actual assist. bottom line number though is that he has 3 in 26 in the league...
is nico williams and his 3 goals this season that much of a game-changer?
i get the appeal, he's fast and he beats players but right now, that's largely where it ends.
