We have too many wingers and not enough strikers IMO.And we'd still be light on the wing
It's pretty clear how different him and Dominic Calvert-Lewin are in playing style.
I like Maupay for his ability to make defenders uncomfortable with his workrate and he does have the ability to pull defenders with some decent runs, however he hasn't been able to demonstrate any real quality with his back to goal for us as of yet. It could simply be it isn't in his locker and he's better as a poacher.
I think adding variety upfront wasn't a bad thing considering we have Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Rondon who are more comfortable at that side of the game.

Maupay just isnt a 1 up top CF for me.
Either play him alongside Dominic Calvert-Lewin or in the Richarlison role oot wide and see if he adapts to cutting inside and getting a shot away.
When Iwobi isn't firing I'd like to see Maupay played the advanced attacker role, off C-Lewin a la Cahill. See if we can use him running into space after knock downs and flick ons, or helping working it wide for overloads.I think he can do that job, but its needs to be in a time who gets the ball into his feet more.
He started well, but has been poor the last 2/3 games. But then, that's kind of what you get at the 10m price point.
We played Richarlison up top, and honestly he struggled last season up front on his own. It's a hard gig for us at present. However poor/unfit Dominic Calvert-Lewin has been the last 12 months, that does have to be factored in a bit.

Not ideal, far from it but hes been more useful than say rondon
