I know it’s annoying when this happens but I can’t let it go, 40 is a looong stretch.
But here we go...
(League only)
If you average out Doherty, Jimenez, Jota goals over the first 2 seasons it’s 27.
Raul had scored 4 before he went down
Neto played 31/38 for 5 goals so on average a goal every 6 games or there abouts . So I’ll give you 1 goal for the 7 games he missed at the end of the season.
27-4+1 = 24
In any case I get your sentiment. 24 goals is still a significant number of goals to replace and any team on par or around our level would also struggle. But that’s football, there is always injuries and players always come and go.
Nuno’s time here was up whether it was poor recruitment, a global pandemic, plain bad luck or a combination of all 3.
