Looking at the whoscored stats, I think you might be right

He is accurate in his passing - he might just be in the wrong spots for what Insigne & Bernardeschi expect. Opposing teams are marking him close (not like Nelson who they just let get the ball & wait for him to stop & attempt a dribble). He is taking up space. I just don't see balls going to him when he's in the middle & for a striker, that's a problem.
Akinola is getting the same treatment.
Its almost like Insigne & Bernardeschi need a false 9 to play off or a tall leaper #9 to target.
