Over the next couple of years expect Harrison and Costa to play less and less with Raphina, Poveda more and more.
The only question I have is whether Rodrigo plays a 10 or replaces Bamford?

bamford is going nowhere, Rodrigo is what we are missing in the middle of the park, Dallas keeps playing there and is not good enough.
I like Harrison but he must have dirt on belisa to get so much game time, last night he played well but was wasteful (should of scored two and could of had a hat-trick) povda and costa have been in great form and should be playing more.
over the next few years we got a lot more players who we can expect to play more
bogatuz, mccalmot, Stevens shows promise, Kenneth, Joe gulieheat, Edmondson (if belisa leaves Edmondson is not a belisa player) , Davis, gotts, cress well the future is very bright.

Isn't Harrison one of the top creators in top flight football right now?
His work rate alone is enough to justify the game time.
Costa missed a sitter, probably the easiest chance of the night.
I like the options we have on the bench and agree there are a number of very promising youngsters waiting in the wings.

Harrison missed three chances two of which were far easier than Costas (the header and shot that went wide were quite bad and had Bamford missed them everyone would be demanding Bamford have his legs cut off)
I like Harrison but his final descion is often lacking for me and his goal output not high enough for me (costa scored the same but played far less) .
Personally I think costa has been pure class and one of our best players both costa and Poveda offer more pace, penetration and intent than harrision who has more class but don't always show it. although I have to say all three are good players so we are in a good place to be arguing about who is better as all are good rather than moaning about three players who were not good enough.

Watch again Berm, Harrison did well to get his header close (of course should have done better) , his miss was poor for sure but didn't have the time that Costa did for his. That was an embarrasing miss in my book.
Either way glad we have both and the option to change them around if one is off form.

Just checked out the numbers, Harrison 23 key passes (4th best in league) , Costa has 7. Not even close.
That's the reason he's the starter.
Now if only we could turn those passes into goals!

Harrison has the first touch of an angel! He takes a 40 yd pass out of the air without breaking stride! Okay he needs to convert more of his goal chances but compared to Bamford he is ultra clinical! Costa to me is a little lazy, a little slow to react sometimes! He definitely should have scored yesterday!

Harrison is only going to get better, so he’s going nowhere.
POV will play more, but I can see Rapha playing at 10 in time. What that means for Rodrigo, I dunno.
