I completely disagree with what shearer says, if they lost Salah who do they have to step in? Lallana has been injured and out of form, Ings? Solanke? woodburn? when they had coutinho they could at least re-jig their midfield. Son has been affective playing up front for us and if Kane is out for a long period I think Llorente (with an extended run) would show his worth. Outside of pools current front 3 they don’t have any decent back ups
You make a good point. I'd forgotten that Coutinho isn't there anymore. Their 'trident' of false 9's wouldn't cope with a significant injury to Salah. And on reflection, I think we have already shown we can cope without Kane with Son playing up top. I stand by my Chelsea comment though. Without Hazard they'd be in much bigger trouble!
