That chance he had last night that he hit with his left , that deflected and was saved is exactly the same thing he has been doing for years and every now and again he gets lucky and it goes in. He’s literally doing the same thing. I was actually surprised he didn’t run into the defender looking for a pen if I’m honest
Had a good season , but if we are serious about challenging we need a more clinical finisher leading the line. But fair play to the lad.
He's not clinical but he's not actually a bad finisher....although the eyes can often suggest otherwise.
Our view is skewed by that fact that we see every minute of every Everton game and remember it. The same scrutiny isn't applied (by most of us) to other players at other clubs so we don't have such a detailed memory or have never actually seen the poor touches, misplaced passes and scuffed shots.
XG virgin mode shows that his overall finishing isn't drastically behind anyone bar the absolute best strikers in Europe in terms of taking quality chances. Every striker misses them fairly often.

I think you are spot on there Claus, I tend to listen to other players and other managers when they talk about outer players. They often slag off those we adore and praise those we slaughter. I think this is down to them seeing glimpses as you say. However, almost all the strikers who speak of him, speak well of him. That says far more to me than lads on here most of whom know as much as I do. Everyone is entitled to voice their opinion, that is what a forum is about, but so many seem to think he is good, it does make me wonder why so many blues are determined to think him bad?

Aaaaand were back with our recurring segment of armchair beauts who have got nothing better to do than browse through other members previous posts so they can try and get a few laughs and look like the big man.
A timely reminder of why i tend to not post here as often anymore.
Sad but true.
So basically, can't be arsed to watch his goals back.

The ultimate way to judge a CF is by their goals/finishing ability and DCL over 3 years is average in that regard.
He can head a ball? So can Andy Carroll/ Troy Deeney.
He works hard? So does Shane Long
He is a nice lad? So is Steven Naismith
Ultimately if we want to progress and challenge for the CL/Europe spots he can't be a guaranteed starter in the side.

How many of those names you’ve mentioned have hit 15 goals in a season (in top tier English football).
We’ve worshipped strikers in the past who havent even made single figures season after season yet we’re knocking a lad who’s hit 15 in a team that doesn’t create chances.

I think you've posted something like this on pretty much every page of this thread
He's younger than any of those examples that you've given and has already scored more goals in a single season than any of them have ever managed in the prem
