Fell short before him as well. That’s why we can count on one hand the number of real quality strikers we’ve had in the last 3 decades. He might not be good enough for where we want to be but we have much bigger issues in midfield than we do with Dom.

If he comes through pre season unscathed and starts like he did last season on the goal front then there won’t be an issue

We’ve had so many forwards who were expected to be the next Latchford, Sharp, Lineker or Cottee. Andy J, Beattie Jela, and apart from Lukaku it just hasn’t really happened. People talk with such confidence that we can just buy someone and they will be banging in 20 goals a season. Our team is [Poor language removed]. Nobody we can afford will do that until we have a midfield that can actually supply quality balls for the forwards.

Everyone talks about 20+ a season striker, in todays Premier League this is a very rare commodity. DCL looked good last season and if this season had been similar we would have been fighting off bids. A season of injury has created uncertainty and lowered his value and desirability to other clubs. If he is as effective next season under Lampard as he was under Ancelloti there is no one in the market that will be as good for Everton.
Exactly. Like every striker, he needs service.
I do fear Lampard will not play to his strengths the same way Ancelotti did unfortunately. If he doesn’t I’m not sure Dom has the all round strikers attributes to get anywhere near 20 goals again.
Appreciate that sounds a bit obvious, but the best strikers get goals by hook or by crook. Aguero, The big toothed racist, Lukaku (for us) etc didn’t need service the same way DCL does.
If we don’t play to his strengths we may as well play Rondon.

We dont really. We need goals and lots of them...and he isn't good enough to get a lot of them.

We got one good delivery into him over the last 10 games of the seasons and he stuck it.
Hardly his fault if we don’t play to his strengths

He’s averaged 1 in 2.5 over the last 3 seasons. So he can
We don’t have a functioning midfield. No striker will get goals until that is sorted.
He will be a big player for us next season, Beginning to approach his peak and if we can get a functioning midfield then he can have a big impact on the Premiership.
Injuries have not been a big issue before last season so there is no reason why he should not be able to go relatively unscathed through next season.

Ignore the fact we have no attackers beyond a player about to be sold.
Great plan.
DCL WILL be here next season...because no one wants him outside of Everton...what does that tell you?
Well considering his job is to score goals, 1 in 2.5 is probably a good way of judging his contribution.
On another note, the Fulham Donkey you pine over has 1 in 5 return whilst playing in the top league of English toggerball
