It's a tricky thing to describe DCL. He's hard working, fights for everything, gets into the right places in the box and scores goals where we never used to (close range tap in's.) Some take it as an insult when saying he only scores tap in's, but they're crucial. I remember being jealous of teams like United who would always have someone there to finish it off when a ball came bouncing in.
BUT, he's our main striker and whilst he's got strengths, his weaknesses worry me. Far too often this season I've seen him presented with a 1 on 1 chance and he looks like a fish out of water. If Monday was a one off, you can put it down to a bad day at the office, but how often is this happening? It's fine if you're 3-0 up and cruising, but we're not. They're vital chances.
Which ties in Richarlison, many teams have a striker who you rely on and then a second player who feeds off scraps and scores the rebounds/tap in's. We're missing a key striker. I don't see either of them as our "main" striker.
I do also think confidence/frustration is playing a huge part. Richarlison esp is so desperate for a goal that he's continually making mistakes and putting the weight of the world on his shoulders.
