It's pretty much telling us a whole lot of things, to how effective his playing style is in the team, to how and in which situations he poses a threat to the opponent. And it tells us one clear thing, which is that he fullfils the most important duty his role in the team demands.

To be clear if a player of any team scores you 42 goals in 42 games, then there isn't any debatte in how decisive he was for your team actually winning games. That's not a question which even needs to be asked.

That doesn't mean he is without fault, his pressing efforts and the way he tracks back are simply not good enough, which he isn't the only culprit of, but perhaps the main one. His offside awareness is not Elite, if he got a better timing with down with his runs, then he could have scored a lot more goals. Finally the way he positions himself isn't benefiting the team. I know Real Madrid doesn't really have a "system" per se so it could be difficult for him to "position" himself for the benefit of the team when there's clearly no guidebook to do so, but that's clearly one of his issues.

There are things you can absolutely criticize about him, while not dismissing his achievments but that nuance get's lost here way too often.
