Bellingham as you can see is overperforming his xg drastically at this stage and that should normalise eventually. But if Joselu plays a decent bit of minutes this season (over 1700) he could be a top 3 scorer in the league.

Also love the box presence he offers the team, smth we haven’t had since Morata and even that was as a backup. Having a central outlet occupying the CBs makes the creative players jobs so much easier.

He deserves much more respect and credit than he has gotten and never deserved the … doubts in preseason.

    I’ll confess I made fun of Birmingham City for retiring the shirt number of a 17 yo leaving the club after playing for the first team for a few months. But the man has really proven himself at BVB, and with England and Madrid now.
