It's a style of play that's created some very good scoring opportunities for him. Does he want a few more sideways passes before smashing it straight at the keeper in a 1 on 1? DCL's contract issue is more likely over money than anything else. A free transfer is potentially a massive earner for him.
If style of play mattered that much then why would players leave teams who 'play the right way' in order to join disjointed sides like Man Utd?
