Most of those goals are in matches that we were already winning. And if you look closely he is insecure as fuck in front of goal.Very happy with him this season. He has 13 goals for 1127 mins played. That's more than 1 goal / 90 mins played. That's what you want to see from a quality squad player. Yes, we paid a bit too much for a squad role, but that's football, many teams have 50-60m signings that fulfill squad roles.
The header vs Atletico is the only important goal he score this season, one that really made an impact. And even he or Flick couldn't believe it went in. The second one was laid to him on a platter by a crumbling Atletico.
All in all he has improved this season(stats wise), but who hasn't from our squad? Gavi maybe. He isn't good at being a winger and he isn't a true striker.
Can't rely on him as a starter, can't rely on him making an impact from the bench. Sell
