A good question and one I'd say probably yes too. I think Lookman found it hard to press and do the defensive work Silva wants from his wide players. Silva also wasn't too impressed with Lookman's attitude after he wasn't given a permanent move at the end of his loan. It was a shame as most fans wanted Lookman to succeed and get more starts . Walcott has been on the decline for a while and was very poor at the end of last season. No Europa League this year so it's all in to try an crack the top six. We have a relatively easy start to the season so hopefully we can build some confidence and rack up the points. Iwobi, Richarlison, Bernard and Walcott are vying for the two wide forward places. Calvert Lewin and Kean for striker but Iwobi, Glyfi and Bernard can all play as number 10. It should mean a fluid front three/four and more options going forward and hopefully more goals.
