Perhaps it shows how little you actually know and lack a deep understanding of the game.

Managers, who played as defenders in their earlier careers, aren't attack minded in their tactics. Hence why DCL wasn't given the fullest support. DCL started scoring regularly when Ferguson became manager and made tactical tweaks to help the young striker.
I really hope that you're still around when Calvert-Lewin gets his big move to Newcastle.
 
Would have been worth a go but by the time Dom gets to it Ryan is pretty much on top of him that's why it hits him back and goes for a goal kick.
Do you think Dom needs to improve in 1x1 situations as well as generally when striking the ball?

He can be having a fine season, which he is, and still need to improve those areas. He missed two good chances against Brighton. Finish one, and we’re good before the squeaky last 15.
 

I'm going to say that you had no understanding of Ferguson's tweak in view of your deflections.

In view of the now numerous posts you've made about these "tweaks" without actually presenting any evidence of them, I am left with no choice but to conclude that the fact I apparently have no understanding of them is due solely to the fact that they only took place in your head.

Yeh, of course he needs to improve his 1v1. It's weird though because he strikes such a nice penalty but in-game it's just not the same. I'm not sure on the 2 good chances though vs Brighton; I think the one disallowed was harsh based on what the refs have said in the past on handball and the little outside of the foot in the box wasn't easy at all to edge past Ryan. One on the edge of the box was the best chance but still wasn't so straightforward.
 
Id be interested to see his goals per shots ratio this season compared to other teams forwards.

Anyone have it?

The problem with this stat is that they've included penalties. So actually Dominic outperforms Kane & Rashford by a considerable margin.
 

His strike rate is comparable with other strikers in the premiership. You must be seriously deluded if you think strikers can score from every chances being created.
I have watched Everton and football for long enough to know when we have a striker on our hands, believe me this guy is constantly caught on his heels in the box and misses lots of chances, the one the other day and the chance against Liverpool where he hit it straight at their keeper.
He is about our level at present, however if we want to progress then we need much better

Shot conversion % though, mate. What Mourinho and Guardiola need to learn is that if they'd just had Troy Deeney up top instead of Kane and Sterling, they'd have performed considerably better.
 
No problem.

As for piping the posters down, it is so easy as they know so little. No understanding of football, stats, tactics, etc, whatsoever.

we have no understanding

yet you CONSTANTLY go on like penalties don't count when comparing goals.

you have piped no one down, you will be able to pipe people down at the end of the season IF DCL continues to score goals.

for the 100th time, ONE GOOD SCORING MONTH IN A SEASON DOES NOT MEAN DCL IS BOSS,

CONSISTENCY IS KEY
