The best striker of their generation doesn't go 6 years without an away CL goal. :manny:

best striker of their generation doesn’t have a 5 goal season midway through their career. Mind you Benzema is yet to have a 40 goal season …

R9 has like 14 CL goals, if we want to use that as a metric.

And yet that 5 goal La Liga season. He still got his 3 most important goals in the CL semi 2nd leg vs Bayern and in the final.

Big game players do it when their team needs it most. Suarez went milk carton status vs Roma and Liverpool. All Barca needed was 1 goal from him and he turned into Higuain. :scust:

And he has previous like when he scored 31 goals for Liverpool flat tracking vs Norwich and Fulham but when Liverpool needed him vs Chelsea. Nothing. :beli:

Not every big game has jeopardy behind it. A El Clasico game in October isn't the same level as a game in April/May when you're going for titles. Like a IDK say a CL semi final 2nd leg and your team is losing momentum of the tie when you went into the game 3 goals up.

@SCORCH @Roid Jones @Low End Derrick

You think the 343 done? Kinda giving me the Conte 2nd season vibes. Teams have worked out to play against it. :ld: Not sure of its sustainable without 4 high quality wingbacks.

With the number of defenders leaving might be the perfect time to transition to a back 4 which Tuchel has done at times this season but obviously hasn't looked as secured.

Cant see that happening anytime soon. Like @SCORCH said, this recent blip is more personnel issue; the lack of pace and energy at wb outside of Chilwell and James is painful. :francis:

Going forward, I can't see Tuchel deviating from the 343/352. Also, you have 37 year old Thiago Silva who has signed on for another year, so his lack of pace will need covering for.:ld:

When Benz wins world cup this year hell stand alone as goat striker of this gen
