With a combined 78 goals, Raheem Sterling would have finished as Chelsea's top scorer in each of the past five Premier League seasons.
The lowest tally he recorded during that time was 10, also enough to finish level with or above the Blues' highest scorers for the past two seasons.
Neither Jorginho last season nor Romelu Lukaku this term made it out of single figures. It's been the area that Thomas Tuchel has been most desperate to see better results with this season.
After joining in February 2021 he was happy enough to rely on a solid defence for the remainder of the season and clean sheets provided the bedrock of the incredible Champions League victory, but things didn't improve how they should have.
