Don’t think it was a coincidence that he stopped scoring as soon as our 2 best crossers of the ball left (James/Digne). On top of an injury that was horribly mishandled by Benitez, he was hardly fit on the pitch until the last few weeks. Before that he’d scored in every game up until the injury. I still get frustrated by the lack of converting 1v1s but he’s proven himself to be a goal scorer when fit and with service. For what it’s worth, I don’t think he’ll leave but if Newcastle do come in with a massive bid (and that’s what it will take), then I’ll happily see our 1.5mil investment pay handsomely.

The two early season penalties and the one bundled in off the keepers arse from a yard out are doing some heavy lifting here.

Even in his best season, he has long spells doing nothing in front of goal. He’d be much easier to replace than Richarlison who actually makes things happen himself.
 

Sell whilst the value is still high.
The signs are there injury wise. That has to be a consideration.

I think he misses Digne, Rodriguez and latterly Townsend.

Our wide players like to cut inside and our fullbacks aren’t delivery specialists.
 
They play football on the deck cant see DCL fitting in there
Good. Let's flog him to them for a brillion big ones and get our own back for some of the dross they have fleeced us for over the decades.
If DCL is to fail by being in a side that doesn't suit him, then cash in. Sod flogging him to the Skunks though as he might do well there.
