I actually would have enjoyed a bit of comedy

Our top goalscorer in all comps...

Not sure what the three clear chances were that he should have scored, if one is the rebound off the keeper, people are watching too much HD slow motion and taking in too much pundit bollocks chatting.

Saying he won’t get into a top six team makes him tosh is broken logic and a lazy argument .
I agree he probably wouldn’t get in a top six team ... that does not make him tosh
I agree we need a proven PL striker to move us forwards

But the lad would be snapped up by than a few the teams in the PL if he were released

Not tosh just not at the level we need ....yet .

If by released you mean teams would sign him on a free, then fair enough. But if Everton pitched him for sale, at let's say £15m I'm not sure there would be much, if any interest.

Now there you have it. Take Bernard for example. When he shoots he means it.

It's a pity he wasn't as determined with his other 2 chances.

I would class them as half chances - the biggest chance was Mina's header or did you forget about that one......

Can we use the “he’s our top scorer” line yet like people do with Sigurdsson?

Yes.

Best player. Top scorer. Biggest goal threat. Stats don’t lie. More goals than Firmino. <85 compilations set to a deep house soundtrack>

I got the impression Coleman was pissed off with calvert-lewin, the way he was acting in the celebratory scrum and Keane ushering him away.

He needs to grow up then, he is the club captain.

Pity Coleman who was MOTM imo could not find DCL in the box more often as his crosses are usually naff......,.

Currently he’s simply not at the level required. And personally, I don’t see the ‘potential’ he’s supposed to have or the workrate. For me, he’s a very mediocre front man probably at Championship level. I don’t think you can teach predatory goalscoring ability....you either have it, or you don’t, and DCL sadly doesn’t. It’s a hard fact to acknowledge about one of your first team squad, especially a youngster, but I just don’t see any signs of improvement irrespective of who the manager is.
It suggests Ellis Simms is no better if he’s not getting a sniff of the first team squad.

'Sniffer' Calvert-Lewin. Golden boot, odds on...

But we we not talking about mina, and I would class them as chances premiership strikers have to take.

Yes but DCL chances were one a good save 2 not even a chance were Mina had a easy miss to score to make it 2-1 ....so no do not blame DCL ....
Pickford was worse than anyone yesterday.....again......
