season 2 was just bad for everyone because all parties excepted the team to improve after winning the title & that didn't happen.
First time in a long time he probably didn't defend his league title, was a new & frustrating experience for him.
Couple that with silly mistakes in the CL even...
He knows a few games off the bench will help him at the end of the season assuming he doesn't pick up any injuries & at the WC.
It was made easier too by him being injured.
So he does the most important thing.
How many strikers have great link up play, all while averaging 30 goals per season like he has been for us?
Kane
Isak
Alvarez
that I can think of, most of these young strikers link up is at lewa's currently level or below it.
They'll run around more...
I was thinking the same thing, once yamal gets going again we will see an improvement in lewa, but the general front 4, they just know how to play off each other, add rashford to that now or soon as is timing improves.
