Problem is, shots that used to go top corner of the goal last season now land in the stands. His shooting efficiency went to shite.
He is really struggling to score this season. He hasn't showed consistency in scoring yet but he always had a banger in store last season, but even those dried up.

I'd like to believe his shooting has been off due to his groin injury still affecting him. I don't see him getting as much power into his shots as earlier.

Shooting significantly affects the groin, as the powerful, dynamic motion involves intense adductor muscle use, increasing the risk of strains and athletic pubalgia (sports hernia), causing pain, tightness, and weakness, especially with sudden movements or improper technique.

He scored a top shelf banger against Mallorca in the first game of the season and in general he seemed to go for shots more before his injury.

He just doesn't know how to shoot. So far he got some top corner bangers but how many does he try to hit those few. He fluffs 3-4 shots every game that go nowhere. Then he misses 1v1s and sitters.

His shooting is great when not under pressure, but when the ball is hot he sees red. Will improve I believe, since his tecnique is great. ALl in all, a great performance apart from last 10 minutes where he clearly got overburdened by creating everything and always given the hot potato.

In the first half there was a moment where he was surrounded by 3 or 4 Sociedad players somewhere in the center of the pitch and he got past all of them. That looked really insane, someone must have a clip of that.

and he gave a through pass to Ferran? Who wasted the chance? Or was it Fermin?

Best performance of any Barca attacker this season by far.

Never in my life have seen a team dominate like yesterday and lose.

Aye. Some of us were holding the line here, but always happy to have new troopers join.

I suspect an element of racism involved, wittingly or unwittingly.

If his name were Liam Yates people would be celebrating his attitude towards Real Madrid

He needs to create better angle to shoot. And of course his off ball movement to attack opponent's box.

Need some tweaks in his position too if he wants to be a better goalscorer. Now he is a creative winger whose main job is taking on defenders and creating chances. He is the best right now.
