No it wasn't as simple as the goals he scored. His hold up and link up play was very good and we have missed that from him or whoever is playing CF since that period.....I think you are conflating back-to-back performances against Brentford and United as a spell. He only scored 6 goals in the first half the season (Brentford, United, Villa x2, Chelsea, Liverpool), despite playing pretty much all of every match.
Maddison (not much of a goalscorer) got 7 in that same period for comparison
