Guys when do you think Bergwijn will get his first goal or assist in the league this season?
I'm going with matchday 26 personally!
0 goals 0 assist in his last 19 appearances in the league, playing exclusively as a winger/offensive midfielder.
Whats wrong with him?
A combination of poor luck and not being used as an offensive player by Jose when played.
That doesn't mean that he has been good enough but I think looking solely at stats often fails to show what actually happened.
For example if he passes to Kane who then runs through 5 defenders and puts the ball top corner giving Bergwijn an assist does that make him a better player than if he is the guy who runs through 5 defenders, passes it to Kane who makes a simple pass to Son to score and Bergwijn gets nothing?
This is much more of an issue with someone like Lo Celso who starts a lot of our offense and often makes the key play but not the last pass to create the goal so people whine about his numbers but also can apply to Bergwijn as well.
