2018/19 Dominic Calvert-Lewin

[Osamabindiesel]

If he wasn’t shifted centrally, he had to be the one taken off. Blew my mind that he played the full 90 on the left

Should be leading the line, stronger faster and jumps like a salmon on steroids

 

[Abraders]

Good header for the goal.

Still not a winger though. Genuinely unfair to play him out wide when it's clearly not his game.

Top scorer now is our Dom.

Fastest in the EPL too.

 

[paulbefc]

He wins a lot of headers. Unfortunately he 50ps so many of them that it renders his only genuine strength pretty ineffectual.

Other than that he's really, really bad.

Good goal but he is still very rash, made so many daft challenges that he didn't need to do and gave away unnecessary fouls. He also made a dodgy scissor challenge in the first half that he was very lucky he didn't catch the guy. Missed two really good headed chances after his goal too but all the chances fell to him today so maybe he knows how to sniff out an opportunity.

Now that he's scored one he's gonna try and gets his gammy head on every ball that goes 5 yards off the ground.

 

[Lanolin]

Can we please stop playing him on the wing? He really, really, can’t do that role.

And 4 managers had done that now. Odd.

Looking at this one has to question exactly what is Silva trying to do?????? Because it is not very clear to many fans.

 

[Zatara]

Quite obvious that he was played on the left because Lookman was the only alternative and he's been out injured with no preseason and a lack of understanding or practice in the system.

Seems obvious that DCL isn't 'useless'. Posters comment that he cant score goals, now he has 3 in 2 games. He will really push Tosun for a starting spot if he can continue to score goals at a decent rate...

Couldn’t agree more!

 

[kenada_blue]

Still don't understand why we didn't switch him with Tosun in the 2nd half as he bossed their centre halves in the air.

Good kid is our Dom.

No, he has 2 goals in his last 17 Premier League appearances. I can manipulate with the numbers as well.
Nice goal (which to be honest was more the merit of defender and goalkeeper than his great finishing) but apart from that, he managed to miss few good headers, commit a lot of unnecessary fouls and was directly involved in the goal we lost. And most importantly, he is not and never will be a winger, why the hell consecutive managers decide to put him on that position is just incomprehensible.

He’s too hot,
