Which does make you wonder whether Danny Welbeck has genuinely been as wasteful with his chances in comparison to other forwards as is being being made out, or whether he's simply had fewer chances per game to work with because he's been playing on the wings? Forget his goals-per-games ratio for a minute - does anyone know what his chance conversion rate is? Having paid a bit more attention to what his shooting is actually like now, I wouldn't mind betting that it's not actually too far off any other forward in the league?
Welbeck just needs to polish up on his finishing. When you’re confident enough to attempt chips, dinks and lobs, you can tell he’s confident in front of goal but needs to work on polishing his execution. It was the same with Theo. You’d see him miss chances but also score the type of goals someone like Sanogo or Adebaor just can’t. He’ll be fine with a bit of practice.
