He is and was a donkey, now more at his level in Seria A. A world cup winning striker without a world cup goal, somewhat somes up how he was lucky to have as many winners medals as he does.
He would be okay if he wasn't the main striker but a rotational/bench option. Maybe have Ibrah or Auba or Higuain as alternatives signed years before when we could of got them, ie Ibrah leaving Barce, Auba leaving France, Higuain leaving Real. The season we moved Alexis to false 9 was such a relief.
He's the lamppost that allows you to skip the technical play in midfield (if desired) and go for a more direct approach with power players, which makes you tactically unpredictable, especially with Mbappe and Griezmann near him who are (all three) completely different types of forward to each other.
His lack of goals literally didn't matter, since France had goalscorers flanking him and their midfield could then focus on nullifying the opposition midfield knowing a simple ball to Olivier Lamppost and they're in on the backline.
I used to hate watching him play for us but he's sure as hell effective if you want to play to his strengths and have the right players around him to take advantage.
