We have no attack, teams can take chances against us because we can’t hurt them. Teams can afford to attack us, they can play with a bit of freedom because we are unlikely to score. DCL had a purple patch for a while but taking his time at Everton he has not been a prolific scorer of goals, we don’t know which DCL will return. Our season depends on this window and us getting a goal scorer to supplement DCL or replace him if he doesn’t return to goal scoring ways.

I think it's time to move on from DCL. He was the flavour of the month for a while in the PL but at some point you need to cut your losses and move in a new direction. Can't keep sitting around with fingers crossed that he returns to fitness and form. Not in these times...

Hard to move on a player who is barely ever fit and thus not wanted by other teams. We desperately need 2 strikers capable of playing 30+ games a year, bagging ~15 goals each along the way. The way FL always talks glowingly of him, wouldn't surprise me if we ended up giving him a new deal.

"a player who is barely ever fit"

But look how young he is... Not a good sign...

He's 25. I'd hardly say that was young. He's probably about half way through his pro career. 18 months of injury issues and even when he has been "fit" he still looks only ever a tweak or slight knock from being out again. We can't rely on a guy who may never be able to play 20+ games a year, let alone bag ~15 goals a time.
 
Won't play again this season imo. Probably retire in the summer to take up his side hobby of modelling on a full time basis. He's better at that anyway, so all power to him.
