Oh right. I must have missed him playing.

Are you seriously saying there was no improvement in DCL last season...!

Distorting the quote again ?

What people always discount is how he contributes to goals, even if he isn't scoring them himself

We have a front three at the end of the day. If the other two are scoring and that's a result of DCL doing his job properly then I don't personally see why he needs to get buckets of goals

If he gets 10 goals in the League next season but helps create a lot of goals for Bernard, Richarlison, Siggurdsson, Gomes, Digne etc by holding up the ball and firing off good passes then I'll be perfectly happy with that. Silva doesn't have him set up as an out and out goal scorer but more of a facilitator for everyone else, and that's the role he played last season

He got six (8 in all comps) in limited duty with Silva playing mix and match all season to find his best attacking unit.

Not unreasonable to think he could bag 12-14 with a settled run as the 9, and the other pieces around him, and then you’re looking at a valuable player and a dangerous attack.

Nice one...

Considering the tough job he had this season I was perfectly happy with DCL's performance in all areas

Still things he can improve on of course, but I think he did well enough to get another crack at it next season and I hope we give him that chance

I would have liked him to get more goals just to pipe down the boo boys, but I was happy with his contributions as he did a lot to help with scoring goals even if he wasn't scoring them himself

This isn't about piping down boo boys. He's just crap in front of goal.

Would be a fan favourite... at Shrewsbury

he got 8 this season so next season 15 easily , the season after 20, next one 25

Is right

In 5 seasons he'd be banging 100/season in.

Is right.

We'd still miss out on top 4

We'd still miss out on top 4

On 71 points as well.

Any chance we can work this thread up to the 1000 mark? It is fascinating.

Yeah it's probably best leaving analogies alone as it gets in the way of you repeating the same posts 20 times over..

To give him his due, where are Solanke Afobe Abraham and all these other young English strikers that came through with him? None are leading the line for a top 8 prem team that’s for sure.
