Well I think he's better than Danny Welbeck, better than Ollie Watkins, better than Jordan Ayew, better than Bamford, better than Solanke, better than Che Adams. Need more?
He's not better than any of them though is he, based on what is he better than any of them.

Ayew hasn't been a striker in years either. He plays out wide.

Watkins is better by so much its not even close.

Bamford has had his injuries but I'd say Rodrigo is now their main striker.

Solanke is better, does more in games, doesn't just rely on balls into the box.

Che Adams again does more than just stand in the box waiting for headers or taps in.

I know you'll say he's been injured he's fatigued but his performances this season when he has played ( except palace when he had a good game ) have been abysmal, he's awful.

He hasn't played great this year since injury but you're not talking about just this year (or you'd have said it). You said he's the biggest donkey in the league, and thus those on the list have always been better?

And FYI, Ayew played up top for them even in just their last league game.

He hasn't played "great" since the first dozen games of the covid season.

It's been 2 full years since he resembled a decent premier League striker

Every single player on that list would start over this version of dcl, so again you tell me how he isn't the worst starting striker in the league?

Because he isn't? But now I see you're moving the goalposts to just right now, not in his PL career. Good work.
 

But you think Maupay is worse than him anyway so... what's the alternative?
I don't have one that's not my job, didn't say I DID have one either.

Simms some more in his brief cameo then DCL didn't all game though. Would give him a start, he genuinely couldn't be any worse
 
Been saying this for years mate. Even when he was at his so called best he hardly won a header and couldn't hold the ball up. Had a half decent season under Carlo, other than that?
He was at his best because Carlo basically told him not to move from the 6 yard box. Probably because he offers nothing anywhere else on the pitch.
He did well and scored a few because he had Hamez putting it on a plate for him with it being harder to miss than score.

Now he’s gone the limitation in his game is clear to see.
 
I miss the DCL from before Ancelotti tbh, the tap in merchant was great, but I miss the DCL that used to harass defenders, chase down lost causes and worked the channels. We carry too many passengers now.
