2020/21 Dominic Calvert-Lewin

[Nymzee]

His Barnet is wild without it tied back lol

 

[Terrarian]

certainly had a good game, opened his legs for that pen showing his pace, he's rapid when he gets going.

Richy is not a striker. The difference in quality up top is obvious when Richy moved to support Dom. I have to say though both had a big impact on the game. Good to see

They're v different players, which is good. Felt far more relaxed when DCL came on, his hold up play is brilliant and it stemmed the tide of possession Liverpool were getting in our half

 

[tommytowne]

I have been arguing with my red mates about this. He definitely knows what he's doing there

That's the type of quality that makes him world's greatest right back.

Hahaha. There's something not right with them. Mane has looked like shaun Wright Phillips recently. Not gonna complain though because hopefully that win is one of many against them incoming

 

[Rob17896]

Hate to say it, but twice now he’s found himself one on one on goal and messed it up. Saved by the penalty

impeded for the tap-in actually.

We're going places with the Don and the Dom.

I thought he was absolutely brilliant yesterday. Not just the performance, but how he conducted himself. He strode onto the pitch not just like he was the best player on the pitch, but he owned the turf. For those old enough, there was a period Ferguson did this as well, but even he wasn't as good as Dom.

I think of him bouncing Robertson off him when Robertson tried to foul him. Or When he outjumped Phillips to control aball with his chest. They were terrified of him yesterday. A fully fit Dom for 90 minutes yesterday would have ran riot.

But yes, his body language was superb, and I haven't seen that since Duncan in the 90's

Vey much this, his progress has been terrific, he is now believing that e belongs at the top of the pile, and he is still young, still learning. I agree a fully fit 90 minute Dom against those yesterday would have been a riot. Next time, maybe he can put Lazarus van Dyke in his place too.

I’m only pointing out he missed first time. I think Richarlison would have scored

It's true 1 on 1s are not his strong point. But yesterday was not an example of that. Firstly he won a flat race with arguably Liverpools quickest player. When he got there flanked by 2 defenders he had to take the shot quickly from outside the area to beat the sliding challenge from TAA. The keeper brought off a fantastic save to prevent a goal, the ball was already past him when he got a strong hand to it. The first time effort from Dom was so good the keeper could literally do no more than palm it directly back into his path, and he had a simple tap in if not for the penalty foul.

It was actually a brilliant piece of centre forward play that very few strikers in the Premier would be capable of, including Richarlison who doesn't have the pace to reel back 2 yards on TAA.

I said after his performance against Spurs, he reminded me of Drogba. He’s a real handful physically and his all round game is coming on leaps and bounds. Ferguson and Carlo have done an amazing job in just over a year working with him.

Can imagine being "snapped" by this lad, and it would hurt.

Just wish he’d done it to Robertson yesterday. He terrified their defence when he came on.

they tried mulling him around and he just bounced them. Good job for them he wasn't fully fit to do the 90

Spot on decison by Carlo.
