This . He is very good with his head but he kicks the ball like a CB , always has done and it's sadly bit something you learn so it'd something he will always do. It's no coincidence that in the top scoring charts he is always the only one without any assists, terrible with his feet .Still doesn’t kick the ball properly
Experience will teach him to take better options.Not sure about this. Nowhere near the finished article. There are a few things he can do better. Think the one thing he can work on is his team contribution, particularly like looking up and sliding a ball through to a player in a better position of scoring.
DCL works incredibly hard for the team in defence and attack.does he though? I don't think he does actually. I think he doesn't get involved at all and comes alive when the ball is in the box. Not that theirs anything wrong with that as he's scoring goals, but I think he needs to do more. He doesn't stretch teams anymore
I just thought he’d sprinted so quickly to get up the pitch that he had nothing left for the finish. It was an amazing effort to even make it a chance.
Nope!Bet you was one of the ones who thought Doucoure was a donkey before we signed him.
There are actually good players outside the "big 6" clubs who could more than do a job for us...
Missing the chance at the end doesn't bother me really, he should have done better but you'll always miss chances like that. I'm more bothered about the two chances he had in the first half to be honest, they were both very presentable opportunities and he didn't ever really look like scoring either of them. Not saying they were sitters or anything, they obviously weren't, but they were the sort of opportunity that might be the best sight of goal you get in some games and you have to do better than that. It's something he really needs to work on. Great that he got the goal though, and I actually thought first half he looked a lot livelier than he has recently.
He's great with his head, one of the best around, but it not headball. He needs massive improvement with the ball at his feet.DCL works incredibly hard for the team in defence and attack.
His role has changed because the way we play has changed. The number of times he wins frees for us from scraps when we are under pressure is incredible.
Still think we need another CF alongside him who can do the things he cant do.
Danny Ings 12 months on his contract come the summer - sign him and play 2 up top and I think they would be a very good partnership.
The second one was when he ignored Richarlison and shot. I'm not sure not being able to shoot with your feet is an acceptable weakness in a top level striker personally. I think he's young enough and developing enough that it's something he can work on and get better at. If he doesn't then I think his career will start to flounder, because he can't just score from set pieces and nothing else if we're going to be successful. He has to add either the ability to score different goals or the ability to create more in the long run. I'm not having a go at him, as I say I believe he can do it, but I don't agree that we just shrug it off as one of them things.I am a big Calvert Lewin defender (people may have noticed) but there probably had to be a bit of realism of what he is and isn't. I can only think of 1 chance in the 1st half (the one with the left foot). It was a tame "decent" effort but not the finish of a top striker. Ultimately he is not a very good ball striker, relative to his position. His shot is not massively powerful, particularly on his left. You see Moise Kean lash balls at the goal with real power, it's not a strength of DCL.
He's a very good finisher with his head. I don't think he's ever going to be a prolific finisher though in terms of his feet due to that technique. He's good at getting tap ins. Ancelotti has worked in his strengths.
