It's his first season for us so it's patently obvious he hasn't got the track record. That doesn't mean he can't do it though does it?
Was it only predicted until January? I happen to agree that there are 4/5 teams fighting for 3 places that will go right to the final weeks but, it doesn't change the fact that you are a bit previous to call the prediction wrong.
Ofcourse he can continue to do it, but how many of those goals have come from Coutinhos play in general?
What I said was perfectly correct. The perceived wisdom that I was referring to was that they would push on from there and we would be left in their wake. That hasn't happened - which is all I said, proving that extrapolating a current trend can lead you astray.
It's not like Salah hasn't scored in Coutinho's absence before his move, it's not like Salah hasn't made his own goals. It's the perception of those waiting for our implosion that things they want to happen are already reality.
I was actually going to mention that, he is very good at creating from nothing. Probably why you adopt the tactic of "kick it to the fast lad" so often.
