AOC scored the opener against Man City, so "zero" is simply untrue. If he was in decent run of form, I'd play him (same for Lallana), but I think you're not giving enough credit to Milner, who has been quite good in the last few games, whether he started (Huddersfield, Spurs) or came off the bench (Saints, West Brom). It's not the best situation when Milner is probably your best creative midfield option, but this is where we are.
If you're going to get all fucking pedantic and literal, then saying he's "brainless" is "simply untrue" as well, given he must have some kind of functioning brainstem in order to make his individual limbs move and organs work.
However, I assume some amount of linguistic and logic heavy lifting can be done by the recipient, without me fucking spoon-feeding everything.
So I said "zero end product" which was to illustrate that in most games, he doesn't score, create or deliver enough. The occasional good corner isn't enough, and his passing is fucking rubbish.
As for goals, in actual fact he's scored three. Which is the most he's
ever managed in a season, even if it's nothing to get excited about. However, it did seem to be enough for everyone to start quacking on about how amazing he was, and a steal at £40m, and Klopp's a genius, and he can replace Coutinho and how he's proven everyone wrong who didn't rate him, and blah fucking blah.
And the he was shit again. Oh noes! It's almost as if....he isn't ever consistent and nothing at all has changed, and he's not good enough.
So apologies. He hasn't scored zero goals. He has been largely fucking shite though, apart from a handful of games.
