But it is clear he is last in packing order. Havertz, Pulisic, Werner, Lukaku were all more expensive players. And if you look how much minutes Mount plays it is clear he is regular starter (not so much this season tho).
Of possible 5310mins last season Ziyech played just 1900mins. So 35%. And had 6g and 4a. Scored important goals against Atletico and City 2x. This is good return in very limited time. This season again the same.
Considering all this expectations from him should not be the same as mentioned players. He is basically there to do job when got opportunity and this is what he did. In CC last week and now against weakest opponent in CL.
If you look at game time he is what Origi/Minamino are for Liverpool not Mane/Salah.
Every time he makes mistake people call him shit and names and want him gone... By the look of it some people expect 3 assists from him in every game...
When we signed him I thought realistic expectations from him would be something like 8 goals in a season and around 15 assists. And if he was given regular starter minutes by doing simple math this is exactly what he would have...
But this is reality in big club, too many great players. I am not saying he should be starter here, looking on paper we have better players but I feel people are too harsh on him.
