I suggest if your intention is to have any even mildly serious discussion or debate you read my post before replying to it.
Watkins first goal SJM was playing at least 15 yards inside on the right, i.e. where I like to see him play as he's more effective as a player and for the team.
No involvement in Watkins' second as it came from the left.
Rogers goal indeed SJM did make a tackle in his own half near the touchline that changed defence into attack. His ball into Barkley to charge up the pitch from the half way line who fed Watkins to knock the ball in for Rogers to control and score. Beautiful goal. Justification for playing SJM on the touchline? No, it's the type of tackle he makes every game when playing further inside.
This lethal partnership the stats apparently have between Watkins and Rogers, apart from the goal mentioned above and Rogers supplying the tap in for Watkins against Bologna, I must have missed it. What I would like to see is them working more closely together, last time I looked tap-ins still count as much as worldies. Might help with our goals scored record too, another season where we're way below the teams around us.
