Pretty sure he qualifies for Belgian citizianship this year. That's why he was bought and immediately loaned back to his Belgian club, in order to maintain his continued residence in Belgium as was required.
I was not aware of this, in that case that’s a decent bit of business by us
 
8 Goals in 2054 minutes is just about 1 goal every 2.8 games which is not terrible.
6 Assists is an assist every 3.8 games
He's involved in a goal every 1.6 games.

The lad is doing just fine, give him abit of support
1 in 5 in things that arent the EFL cup, and consistently missing sitters like last week.

Probably has single handedly cost us about 10 points this season. I hope he will do fine in about 2 years, but hes nowhere near it now. Harping on a strikers assists, who cant score goals, is like talking about how many assists a goalie has when he keeps letting in every shot.
 
err yeah at first when he had his first few games.

Dearie me...EVERY SINGLE MANAGER HE CAN POSSIBLY PLAY FOR SELECTS HIM....

lol

Every manager ? So koeman , unsworth ( about 6 games) and Sam? All three are crap managers and we havnt had a single striker all season up till January.

Above are the Stats for a Mr H.Kane. I'm not saying DCL will turn into a Worldbeater but he needs time as Raino85 has suggested.

Why have you provided stats which show Harry Kane having a PL record of 1 in 3.3 or better for his entire Spurs career in the PL to support an argument for DCL who has a PL record of about 1 every 8 games?

These comparisons to top class players really don't help, because he comes off worse in them every time. Just let him develop and accept that while he may turn into a great player/goalscorer, he also may not. Personally I'd prefer to focus on what he is right now, which is a striker who works hard and has some excellent natural attributes, but currently doesn't really have enough to his game to justify him being a regular PL player.

I did say below the stats that, "I'm not saying DCL will turn into a Wordie." Harry Kane was eased in as a Premier League striker. DCL should be afforded the same time.

Those stats don't show him being eased in though do they? They show him scoring 21 league goals in his first full season after 10 games the season before. DCL had 11 games last season and has so far scored 4 in his first full league season. The comparison just makes him look rubbish, which is unfair to the lad, and i'm sure isn't the effect you were going for.

I'm not sure where this sudden penchant for comparing one player to another and then saying 'i'm not comparing them but...' has come from but it seems rife at the moment.

To stay on topic, I hope we bring in a striker of real quality who can both work with and without Tosun, allowing DCL to take a back seat and work on his game with a view to becoming the real deal further down the line.

How many times since christmas has he actually played up front?
