2020/21 Dominic Calvert-Lewin

[Del-boy]

Needs to stay in the box instead of coming deep or going out wide

 

[catcherintherye]

I’ve came to the conclusion Richarlison is a left winger and not a striker. He’s not clinical enough. Just put him on the left and get him to work hard and be a pest.

Yes probably true. Doesnt look happy to be out there though

.....he’s not composed when he gets a chance, he doesn’t drop down a gear and have a picture of the goal. Everything is full on, that’s why he’ll continue to miss and that’s why he’ll continue to score.

i defend the lad but if I have a recent concern, it’s that he might be getting a bit carried away by his own hype.

‘if you’re reading this, DCL, you have to continue working very hard to improve your game. Don’t fret if somebody says Godfrey is faster than you because it doesn’t matter. Don’t fret if Allan is given MoM ahead of you against West Ham. You’re not the finished article. Get on with things, be humble & do your talking on the pitch.’

Awful tonight

The pair of them can’t work together up top. Richi never looks happy to be honest.

Them two missing chances in these homes games have definetly cost us 10-12 points.

Strikers miss chances.

You’re right to be fair although you rarely see him dominating the opposition defence, holding it up well to bring others into play, lacking conviction in shooting and decision making. He scuffs it a lot or when it’s easier to play someone in he shoots instead.

His goal against West Ham was different, it was a good run and a good pass for him to finish really nicely. More often than not tho he lacks conviction. A striker should excite fans, create anticipation, I don’t think he does that for some supporters.

He’s still young and to be fair he has 16 league goals , I still think we need someone else there to at least bring competition and I don’t mean just sign anybody for the sake of it.

It's going to be difficult to find someone close to Dom's level and frankly there are much bigger issues to take on first

They simply don’t link up - how many games have they played together up top and they still play like complete strangers.

They only pass to each other when every other option has been exhausted. I’m convinced they either hate each other’s guts or they both see the other as their main rival to be the CF and don’t want them to score

This is very harsh. DCL is a lovely bloke by the looks of it.

The biggest problem is that without him we have nobody scoring goals regularly.

 

[Joey66]

Can’t wait for @Joey66 to come and tell us all how good he is and how thick we all are

What can he do when the team plays that way we would being the relegation zone but for DCLs goals .....
Rhico has been shocking.......

We are in serious trouble if that was true, thankfully it's not.

They both have

 

[TheBigIguana]

The list of players with more non-penalty goals is very short this season. The world isn't overflowing with better options.

I think people often forget we are a trash team creatively.

 

[Joey66]

16 league goals in that crap team outplayed by the bottom of the league - time to stop knocking DCL as he will be gone soon anyway......
