For poor old Saido Berahino, we are now entering that desperate stage of a goalscoring crisis where the figures are broken down and historical landmarks are recalled.
The cruellest reading goes something like this: 582 days, 13,969 hours and over 50 million seconds have passed since Berahino last scored a competitive goal.
Berahino's last goal arrived in the heady days when Brexit remained a pipe dream or the stuff of sweat soaked nightmares, depending on one's allegiances, when Donald Trump was a TV personality rather than the US President and Roy Hogdson harboured the hopes of a nation as the England manager.
