I see your point but I would always take championship stats with a pinch of salt since the jump in quality is so big. I think especially Sheffield last year gave a lot of people the wrong impression, you still can’t rely on hoping many players would make the step up considering how competitive the league is. Your back line is still basically Championship-level players + Koch, and the biggest chunk of the goals you’ve scored come from Bamford and Helder Costa, not exactly consistent premier league goalscorers. If you miss out on De Paul and Rodrigo can’t hit form (not that unlikely) you easily might start struggling to score too. I still think you’re in a decent position, but you’re playing with fire with that back line.
