I mean if a coach trusts you to start against Milwall I don’t think anyone else should be questioning how tough you are.
I think I made my case why I think Waine is better than Mata currently in the last AWs thread (which boils down to playing and scoring at a higher level, though he’s due a goal of late) and I haven’t seen much analysis of the stat of offering himself as an outlet so I won’t repeat all that.
Certainly it’s a choice a coach can make, but I can’t see how it’s the obvious one, especially with Mata dropping back down the level and Kosta actually having plenty of tricks for a smaller forward as well.
