He scored thirty goals LAST season
On that note, I’ll leave it alone, as I’d hate to see his xG!

He is a shadow of the PLAYER he was, and he doesn’t have technical ability to fall back on. Instead, he needs everything to “click.” If he gets a new deal, I hope it clicks next year.

I only wish him well, and I only care about the quality of the team on the field. He’s had a very bad season for someone who won PFA a few years ago. He needs to sort himself out ON FIELD, because his off field life appears exemplary.

That’s all. Peace out.

Being denigrated for scoring copious numbers of tap-ins is a bit weird. “All he does is routinely get on the end of chances” doesn’t make a lot of sense

Criticize his form this season, by all means. That just seems an odd place to start
It relates to a significant change in when he used to pull the trigger to the chances he gets now.

In previous seasons, he would have had numerous more goals than he has this season. The point is to illustrate what is missing from his game now….perhaps due to a lack of confidence…or “yips,” as has been stated.

Fair enough, but I don't want to deny you the opportunity to see this one thing you pointed out.

Give or take, he is basically around his xG every season.

In fact, you can see this season the +1.76, showing what we all know, he is having an off season in front of goal.

For context, this is KdB this season:

Showing also what we knew at the beginning of the season, KdB was missing alot of chances, but tended to get a pass.
