I'm would of agreed with you at one time, however he was presented with 2 excellent chances against Villa and missed both. However even Broja when he came on at Arsenal away looked more dangerous. I don't think he's a bad player, I just don't trust him to take chances, he just doesn't have ruthless streak or any character that other strikers have. Beto isn't perfect but he will fight and make defenders lives difficult. DCL had 2 chances against Newcastle and missed both.
Broja didn't have one shot on target in his entire loan spell
DCL has his weaknesses but lets not rewrite history to fit a narrative
His 2 chances against Newcastle were a combined 0.33xG, so roughly 1 in 6 chance of scoring each for an average striker

What would the xG have been for a very below average striker? Just asking for Dom and his good lady

I meant that at least in that game he did more to unsettle Arsenal defenders, of course DCL is overall better, my point was DCL doesn't make a nuisance of himself off ball. DCL isn't a bad player, he just doesn't take his chances.

Maybe an average striker at least makes the keeper dive, or maybe only hits row D instead of row V with the follow up effort
 

Coming SOON to a treatment room near YOU.....
Always supported him and wish him well, bur it's time for both parties to move on.
