Nah, his role's just changed. When we actually defended from the front, him pressing and winning the ball back was the catalyst for most attacks. He's staying far higher up now and barely presses any more.

I actually wonder also if he is in part benefitting from our reduced pace this year, he was always the slowest of our front line and perhaps didnt always keep up on breaks in order to get into goal scoring positions so I wonder if the fact that we arent playing with the same pace this year is proving useful to him

8 goals in 12 games, ironically could well be playing the best he has ever done for us

He's got a long way to go to match 2017/2018 for me. Absolute joy to watch that season, goals, pressing, assists, skills.. he was fantastic that year. Upped his goal tally this year but he's changed what he brings
 
Re Bobby, it went unnoticed because he missed so much time with injury but he was scoring at a serious rate last season too.
