But we haven't. Granted that's not all on him but I'd rather have a clinical striker who does his best work in the penalty area. Dessers never looks properly in control of the ball and doesn't anticipate things very well.
If he converted more of the chances he's had early in games we would be a lot better off.
I'd rather have a number of players we can rely on for goals rather than just expecting it all to come from one player.
It's been our biggest problem for years.
55 season we had Morelos, Roofe, Defoe, Kent, Hagi, Arfield, Tav all contributing with goals
No coincidence it's the only title we have won since we got back to the top league.
This season we have had Tav, Dessers and Sima when fit, barely a goal threat from elsewhere. Seems silly to me to point the finger at the people who are scoring and ignore the other clear deficiencies in the team.
