2020/21 Dominic Calvert-Lewin

Some mad comments in here, basically no striker in the world scores with the service that hes getting. The service he is getting is an absolute joke.

Sometimes you need to make a chance for yourself. Rom did it numerous times when he was here.
DCL doesn’t look able to create anything on his own.

Needs service. He's not the type of player to make a chance for himself, generally speaking.

Very good poacher and set piece target

But he never seems to take long shots or dribble past people

We need to get into their half for him to do that. Rom is a world class striker and he required service.

 

[MACCA75]

Miles better than Harry Kane apparently..

Got to pass to him first.

Centre forward in this Everton team, without Digne or James, is a pretty thankless task. Wide players who can't cross a coupon and midfielders who get nowhere near or run behind you to create space.

Did he go on a 9 game drought after restart last season? We can't afford him to do that again, hopefully if Hamez can get fully fit the goals will flow

Had no service whatsoever. Anyone moaning about him dropping deep to collect the ball, needs to have a think. He does it to try and get the team moving forward, without him getting involved the team keeps passing backwards and he gets called lazy. Hes got the physicality to get up and down, it wasnt as if our players were getting into positions to cross and play a through ball without a target...

The problem is that he drops down in the same line as Gylfi and AD, and when in addition Bernard and Richarlison move into the central corridors, we become too compact. If Bernard and Richarlison had instead attacked behind the defensive line of West Ham, we would have had better depth. Instead, we played football the way the kids play it. Everyone runs towards the ball.

 

[maccavennie]

Poor tonight but he's been fantastic so far so no surprise his levels have dropped without a break.

 

[Joey66]

Our crossing tonight was gash - our service to him was gash - the team was gash ......

Not sure I agree there, saw him just as often dropping down the flanks imo. Besides hardly Doms fault we have a team that all cut in centrally with no width from the flanks when Digne is out.

Needs a serious rest, let him sit out the Rotherham game next week, play Richy up top if need be. Dom’s been an utter workhorse as of late
