The inspiration for this piece came from football.london's own Adam Newson, who pointed out the lack of natural creators in Thomas Tuchel's lineup against Crystal Palace on Saturday.
Breaking this down further only vindicates this concern.
Other than Hakim Ziyech, who scored the winning goal and delivered some exquisite crosses that no one capitalised on, the obvious creators were hard to find with no Mason Mount, Reece James or Callum Hudson-Odoi present.
