Hes played 90 mins in the PL on 11 occasions this season with 6 goals and 5 assists end product and we know what he gives us systemically. Hes 22.
I can handle that.

Bent...... 271 prem games - 105 goals
Bergkamp.... 315 prem games - 87 goals
It's not fookin difficult lad.... Albert Einstein? More like Albert Steptoe
First rule of stats - establish a comparative basis.
why do you dismiss all other goals? it's absolutely weird!
oh and marcus Bent only scored 40 prem goals all the rest were first division (championship) goals in 215 games
so Bergkamp in the premier league was a 1 in 3.6 striker
Bent a 1 in 5.37
so again... you are chatting utter wham
"DARREN BENT".... ffs lad. Seriously. Just give up on football....
If you have a sample size large enough and is equivalent - you use that.... in this case the Prem..... unless you think DARREN bent played in Holland and Bergkamp played in the championship at some stage.... after all we are in the premier league aren't we?
Any chance of having I.Q tests as part of the vetting process?
It's not a case of working the lines and finding the positions to score though is it,it's down to luck a lot of the time,finding yourself in the right position when the ball is delivered and given Richarlison and Sigurdsson tend to go directly for goal in advanced positions he's unlikely to find himself on the end of many through balls.I wasn't a huge fan earlier on in the season and the low of the Milwall game made me doubt he had what it takes to lead our line but for such a young lad he's coming on well.And if we carry on winning with the set up we have....but time will tell if he can become a more rounded striker or just a work horse.Which has been addressed numerous times in this thread, including in my post that you responded to originally. Working the back line is great, honestly it is, all people are saying is that some players appear to be able to work the back line and get in positions to score, and if he can do that he will be ready to be our main striker.
apologises. I thought we were talking about Marcus Bent
but why are you so quick to dismiss Bergkamps other goals?
It’s a weird thread when Dennis Bergkamp is being compared to Darren Bent.
Very weird.
Benzema was a lone striker for Real Madrid..... far less prolific than Higuain yet got selected.... He scored 11 league goals or less in 4 seasons and had played on average 30 games in those seasons and they won trophies...... explain.
Not weird at all...... people criticising Doms goalscoring as being a make or break factor yet here is Darren Bent with a better prem goals to game ratio than bergkamp.
You'd have Bergkamp over Bent all day.... highlighting the fact that a striker can contribute massively to the team outside of goal a which is what Dom does.

Name those players who can physically do what DCL does but score a hatful...
Benzema. Suarez, mandzukic..... struggle for others.
Benzema is actually a good example of a player who sacrificed goals for the good of the team. He provided space and opportunities to ronaldo and kept out better goalscorers like huguian
I think he'll play DCL on the right today, with Tosun in the middle, because of his lack of trust in Lookman, who will probably get 30 mins late on. I don't think he sees Lookman as a starter, and neither do I.
