yes and we can now see that was Ancelotti's genius, making the most of what he had, and it's no wonder DCL's best season was under him.

It was always going to take time to get match sharpness back and he's reliant on wide forwards who can't make good decisions and hardly create anything. It would be hard enough for him after so long out never mind adding in unproductive team mates.
We know he's not the pick it up on the half way line, beat 5 defenders and slot. He has a specific skillset and we aren't playing to his strengths currently.
He isn't putting himself about like he used to but I'd imagine some residual fear from injuries may be lurking.

No form, no service provides a headless chicken with no purpose.
Dom is a better all-round forward than all of them, bar maybe Watkins.
He's not the same player he was and we needed to have a proper alternative, and eventual replacement, signed in the summer.
You have seen Maupay play for us, yeah?
Ironically when his injury issues started and we didn't have James in the side as much.
I for one never claimed he was an elite forward. But he is a good player when you get the ball to him in the right positions.
For that you need quality in those creative roles. Not Gordon, Gray and McNeil.

No he's not, he's absolutely terrible, he cannot do anything anymore, he was once a nuisance that worked hard, he changed his game for 6 months and was a good poacher, now he offers zero.
I have watched maupay play for us and agree he's been awful as well, I've watched maupay play for Brighton and Brentford to know he does have his uses though.
Every player who scores 25 championship goals atleast has the ability to finish chances, DCL never has had that.
None of those players i listed have that ability bar Watkins.
The one goal Dom has scored this season was all of his own making, v Palace.
Please, stop talking out of your backside.

Welcome back Wayne
If he has a fear of getting injured, he shouldn’t be playing and picking up wages. He gets paid to score goals and isn’t doing it…..

Ironic considering you've just stated DCL would score 25 goals in the championship
Fully fit, he absolutely would do.
What about the players who get paid to provide chances for him to score goals?

They probably think he’d miss anyway so try it on their own…
