2018/19 Dominic Calvert-Lewin

[Tel001]

I happily bow to your vastly superior footballing knowledge, I genuinely do. But if he is that crap, why has no manager binned him, why have Brands and Silva named him as being a future star and (unless I was hallucinating) even Pep named him recently as one of our talents?

Was that said when pep was saying we are a “ top side “ ?

Well without it it ended 1-1. I'm just acknowledging the assist sorry m9

He ruined a good chance to make it 3-0 and put the game to bed. He's really poor, a defenders dream.

 

[Tel001]

My favourite moment was when we broke, he had the ball but somehow managed to run past it, then turn around and it put it out of play

Marvellous

Shearer used to do that too, also like that cool one on one shot he had, terribly unlucky not to score , had power and was heading right in the corner , still bumbfounded as to how the keeper managed to save it

 

[Tel001]

Same as Davies, out in the summer, with any luck.

Hopefully Bournemouth are looking for a young , English CM

 

[Osamabindiesel]

We need better in the short term. I still hold out hope that he gets it together in the long run. He would do well to improve his balance and finishing. All of the physical tools are there.

Having said that, we are desperate to address the striker/goalscorer situation. Dom certainly isn’t up to scratch atm. He should have seen some time on loan so he could get his confidence up.

Not good enough no matter which angle one looks from.

....lovely pass for Bernard to score.

Horse manure

 

[efcjames]

People made up because our starting premier league striker got an assist against Lincoln City...

This.

We are literally a nothing club.

 

[BernieH]

Wasn't great but got an assist, credit for that but performances like that won't shush the boo boys.

....lovely pass for Bernard to score.

Once in a blue moon pass is not enough, this guy should be scoring!

 

[paulbefc]

I doubt his value will ever be any higher than it is now. Assuming January is off the table due to Niasse (definitely) and Tosun (possibly) leaving, I think we should be selling in the summer. Clearly there are clubs willing to massively overpay for young English players (see Bournemouth with Solanke) so we should be looking to take advantage, as we've done in the past with Rodwell.

...it’s certainly a problem position for us and one that needs strengthening, but DCL will be a useful player to have in the squad going forward. For me, he’s the best of an average 3 conventional strikers at the club.

Which is why Mate we to do some selling and byting if he is the best of the bunch.

Its a no from me, rather like Davies I cant see anything that says hes going to be upper league level,Id rather we sold these players ASAP than have them getting contracts and making up squad numbers
