At the minute he is, most definately

Based on the last 8 games he most definitely playing better yes. That other chap didnt say that he just said it's a fact dcl is a better player which is ridiculous

8 games isn't nowhere near enough to claim dcl is a better player than someone who's had 6 top years
 
So he's gone from being the next Harry Kane... To being compared to bergkamp, baggio and co to now being worth £120m.

I hope to god this forum is private because rival fans must be pissing themselves.

We'd be creasing ourselves if a similar thread was on RAWK
 
I'll reiterate my point, because it seems some didn't understand

I'm not saying don't buy another striker

What I'm saying is that if we do they shouldn't just walk into the team

They must prove they deserve it more than DCL, because he HAS proven that he deserves the position due to his efforts this season

And if they don't, the job must remain Doms, otherwise what's the point in anyone trying hard if they're just going to have the opportunity snatched away when they've proven themselves worthy?

Hopefully even the dimmest of posters can grasp that (Although I won't hold my breath)
I’m evidently dim but I still don’t understand.

If we sign a new striker, how can they prove they deserve a place in the team ahead of DCL without actually being in the team? Unless you just mean prove it in training, in which case is that even an argument? Surely we all just expect that to be the case anyway, that the manager will pick the team he believes to be the best?

What has the previous 6 years (not all of them top btw that's another mirage) got to do with it???
Based on that logic let's go and sign Robin Van Persie eh....
 

It's got to do with replying "haha" to a post that puts context around DCL current value.

Rather than use the post to debate those facts and competitive values you reply ... "haha..... "

You’ve already questioned why you’re wasting your breathe but keep going!? You don’t have to carry on arguments with people who don’t agree with you.
 
Only my opinion.
DCL worth about 12m currently because he doesn't slot.
DCL is improving and doing a job for us but failing in his main job as a scorer.
We need a scorer next season that integrates hard work with goals. The question is whether DCL will add the goals to his play for next season.
The scenario is that lack of goals from your main striker is going to hurt the team and cost us many points therefore IMO we desperately need another striker.
Let DCL continue with his progress and hopefully add the important factor of making, creating and scoring goals to his already impressive progress.
In my book he is not there yet but very well could be soon. That inbetween time we need a slotter to add goals to Siggy and Ricos tally and not wait for something that may or may not happen.
