If age comes into it its a much tougher arguement, the skies the limit for Musiala as hes gotten better every season it seems. Our team without him just looks much more lethargic right now, he creates space all around him when hes on the ball. All that being said there are more #10's around that could slot in, not to say easily replaceable but there are allot more options then say trying to replace Kane. It was the initial problem when Lewy left as well, Kane was the seemingly obvious fit but there really wasn't anyone else. I guess thats why we tried the Mane route and a formation change which clearly failed.

I knew you'd appreciate it . Arguably would choose the same because of his goal-scoring ability. He's ridiculously prolific. I think age comes into it though, and that's a strong point for Musiala; so young yet so talented you wonder what his ceiling is.

I feel like how I did before the Southampton game. Expecting a loss, anything less is a bonus. A win is superb in any circumstance and however it comes about. We're definitely conceding. Can tell anyone that much for free . Cooper has absolutely no idea how to stop the flurry of shots/goals that we're met with any game. Wednesday was an absolute joke. Shot attempts on our goal in the last 7 games below: Man Utd - 25 Forest - 20 Southampton - 14 Bournemouth - 17 Arsenal - 36 Everton - 16 Palace - 20 So feeble and weak and it's no wonder we concede almost every single game. We score every game but I'd rather have some defensive solidity within us and not have to hope we score 2 goals just to have a chance of winning a game. Interestingly as well both ourselves and Ipswich are the worst for Expected Goals (10.57 for us; 9.76 for Ipswich) and Expected Goals Against (23.22 for us; 24.09 for Ipswich). So either expect a lot of goals tomorrow (and more in favour of Ipswich) and potentially a score draw.

Been meaning to drop in for a while. Hope everyone is ok - or ok as they can be with the things life has thrown at them.

John, whom was present when writing was invented doesn't even use them all the time. Bunch of old codgers around here.
