2021/22 Dominic Calvert-Lewin

[twoblue]

Maybe I’m wrong but I just don’t see DCL and Newcastle at all, it’s the exact opposite of the sophisticated metropolitan move he was probably hoping for and I can’t see their fans taking to him or him to them. Yeah, money talks but he seems like the sort of guy who would also value lifestyle and his other interests, not to mention the sort of guy who might not like where the money comes from. Or maybe I’m being naive.

Odds for manager changes and transfers are always sketchy. A few pounds either way and the the bookies think there is inside knowledge

 

[St James]

I think that would be exceptional. We aren’t getting that though unless Newcastle get desperate towards the end of the window.

Newcastle will get someone like Victor Osimhen or Gianluca Scamacca, I don't think they would really be looking for a DCL type player.

Would you take 40 mil and Callum Wilson?

If he wasnt 30 with a terrible injury record yes, but he is 30 and he does have a terrible injury record, so no Spud.

 

[PeregrineT]

I dont trust DCL to put that much effort into it just for the merit of it. But I do trust him to be motivated by money and improvement, and by keeping him and making him have to have a good season to force his way somewhere else

They also just signed a forward for 30m

Hope he stays, cos he's a great player, but the negativity he gets really grinds me down.

Support your Star Striker.

If ,as I hope ,Calvert-Lewin stays we still have to find a decent back up forward as we can’t go into next season with Rondon as his reserve.
If he leaves we have to find two competent CF’s.
If Richarlison goes we will have to attract 3 decent forwards.

Why?

This is what I was thinking. They have a target man in Woods, and two decent strikers in Wilson and that new guy from Frnce. No way they are after DCL

 

[Carlito]

I think Wilson is arguably the better player, but his injury record would put him beyond consideration for me.

Last season aside, DCL has always been quite reliable fitness-wise.

He has always been a hard worker for the team. There were a few games where he looked off it this season but coming back from injury and possibly tactics/instruction to not overdo it and remain an outball? In the few years he's been with us he has always worked hard imo and made a big difference last few games

Woods was a needs must, short term signing to keep them Up and relegate burnley at the same. Plan worked well and he has covered £30m.
Not sure he is a top 6 striker at his age.

You have to have a good album before you even consider breaking up the band...Top of the Plops is as good as it's been.

Get back to your instruments.

I think he is pretty self motivated

Between long term injuries and mental health issues we should write last season off. Give the lad a supply chain and he will score 15+ again.
