Thats fair. I'dalso add though, we've had 1 striker in 25 years who's regularly scored 14+ league goals per season. We all want another one, but they don't grow on trees. He's just not our biggest priority currently, you want to improve every position but there's an acute sense of priority for me.
The defence (or 3/4 ofit) looks ok for me. Midfield needs an overhaul. If we can do that over the next 2 windows and Calvert Lewin is still at say 13 league goals a season. Our midfield doesn't make chances for poeple. It's why Tosun and Kean had 1 goal each. They are poor. Put Bardy, or Ings or whoever in front of that midfield and they don't get many. Most DCL chances he makes for himself.
That's interesting as for me DCL isn't a striker that makes his own chances. He isn't good at beating a man or running away from defenders with the ball. Like the other night, he didn't get away from his man and his resulting shot was half blocked.
He's crying out for better service, like you say, and a more fluid style of football from the team, which should lead to more chances being created for him. It's down to him then to take a reasonable percentage of those chances.
I've not been a fan of his, as my posts in this thread would no doubt show, but I agree the midfield needs to be drastically improved and then see how he does. Sort the midfield before a striker essentially - we may find that we don't need to sort the striker. Let's hope Brands and Ancelotti have the priorities in the right order too.
