First of all, wrong information. Soldado didn't get 18 goals and assists this season - he´s got 7 goals and 4 assists in La Liga (played 33 games), and 4 goals in the Copa Del Rey. By the way, Soldado is a striker, not a number 8.This season 35 year old Roberto Soldado got 18 goals and assists in Spain. Cheeky summer bid?
Lo Celso has averaged 1 goal assist every 7 games across his La Liga/EPL career. He is not a creator of key passes leading to goals.
The player he replaced (Eriksen) has averaged 1 assist in 3.
But honestly, there´s no point in undervaluing Spanish football and bringing Roberto Soldado to the discussion just to make a point about Lo Celso being bad. Especially, in a topic about Harry Winks.
