2019/20 Dominic Calvert-Lewin

[Billysgingham.]

A question to anyone who thinks this guy is a top striker
If he was running through on goal with just the goalkeeper to beat semi final of a cup one minute to go, to either equalize or put us 1-0 up does he score?

Nope.

All strikers miss chances. He is doing really well.

Carlo:

"He is doing well but he is not enough. If he wants to be a top striker, he has to work more hard, focus hard, work more. He is doing well but he has to have the game to be focused all the time."

I expect the chequebook to come out for an attacker in the summer.

Far from Dom’s fault we lost today, but he does need to be sharper, he scores that close range effort which Leno saved and we potentially would have gone on to win - fine margins in games like this, but I think it’s obvious that our defence as one of our midfield are to blame for this defeat

Are you referring to the one when he would of been flagged for offside had he scored?

 

[DaChunk]

Know the last top striker we had who would miss chance after chance? Lukaku.
Get off DCL's back, he's class.

 

[davek]

No tap in their goalkeeper came off his line not like ours who was glued to it...... on my stream it showed you he was just offside OK.....

He was on; the Arsenal LB played him on when he went to ground out wide.

The chance was a tap in, he blew it when he froze and allowed the GK to rush out and get right on top of him. Richarlison hammers that in 10 times out of 10.

I’m pretty sure Xhaka was down by the touch line playing him onside

I actually kind of like that Carlo had a go at him. Personally I think it is Carlo losing his cool a bit today. But it sends Dom a message. We need to be more clinical. We should have won

 

[NewRadical]

There is no doubt he's improved immensely, especially in the last 3 months.

I know he's added more goals to his game but he really needs to work on his finishing. It's quite poor.

Hopefully he can do so, I'd be glad to see our club reap the benefits.

I hope he does - forget cool we need a manager that kicks these idiots in the plums as they have no professionalism.

Conceeding 3 goals to a team that struggled to score 1 past some Greek farmers is unforgivable.

Conceding literally 20 seconds after half time is outrageously unprofessional - to me this game has some similarities with the Newcastle game

I didn't see that mate. On first viewing I thought he was off. He should of scored but at the same time it was a Decent save. Keeper stood tall

 

[PhilRegan]

We scored 2 goals as a team. Missing a few more chances on top of that should NOT be losing us points.

It did today mate

 

[Axlswhk]

All will be forgotten the next time he score a winner in a very tight game.

He will be our very own Luca Toni in a few years time. Hopefully.

 

[Nymzee]

It did today mate

I'd argue pathetic defending on 3 goals did.
