Last week was the first time he had failed to score since gameweek seven and he still got an assist.
I’m looking at that Tottenham 3-4 Chelsea game a few weeks ago and picturing the same scenario on Sunday.

Luton have eight points from their first eight games and currently sit 18th in the table. Their two wins so far came in back-to-back victories against Millwall and Sheffield Wednesday last month.
Since then they have lost at Plymouth and seen a potential three points turn into one against the U’s.
“It’s a confidence thing,” the 31-year-old Belgian said. “Obviously, last season was different and we’re now one of the

Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino has insisted he would “never” quit his job amid the club’s struggles this season.
He was booed by some Blues fans, who also called for him to leave, during last weekend’s draw at Brentford.
Chelsea have earned five points from the last 15 and go into Monday’s game against Newcastle United in 11th
