2022/23 Dominic Calvert-Lewin

[Big Sams Undies]

Let’s not let whether Dave is out of order or not distract us from the fact that DCL is not a very good, nor reliable, football player

He is a good player but injuries look to have ruined him which is a crying shame

He is still pretty young for a striker of his type. Typically big physical strikers tend to peak in their late twenties, early thirties.

Career will probably peter out in a similar vein to Andy Carroll.

Be a useful target man to stick on when chasing a game, but we need to prioritise a new CF.

Carroll had one good season. Believed his hype. Got distracted. Picked injuries en masse. Carrier was over. Replace Carroll by Bambi and bingo!

Zero service again.

Feeding off scraps and half hearted passes.

Christ we miss James so much if not for his corner taking ability alone

Carroll has either started or came on as sub in 9 out of Reading’s 10 games since he rejoined them

Did hit the heights there. Believe Bambi could do a job for Sunderland on one leg. They like Everton "players" over there.

He's not a good striker. How he's played for his country god or Southgate only knows. He barely wins a header or holds the ball up with his back to goal. Had a great chance to score, a little sidestep round the keeper and he scores, but panics and hits it straight at him. No calm mindset in front of goal. It's a no from me.

This narrative man. It’s the same people that insist injuries ruined Barkley, Moyes ruined Rodwell, and McFadden and Bilya were great players just in the wrong position.

Never dawns on them that they simply overrated our players.

Not really a natural footballer is he .. more of an athlete really but he's the best we've got right now so until we can get someone better then lets hope he can
stay fit.

 

[Toff33Blues99]

The guy has never been good enough to be first choice number 9 and now he is a sick note. Why must our default always be sentiment over being cut throat. Same goes for the capt. Not good enough even for us

You try and knock it down to a team who don't want to be in the same post code as you.

A striker who thrives on crosses with a supply line that doesn't cross the ball and have provided a sum total of no assists this year.

Ancelotti knew how to use him and you saw what he can (could) do. Seems Frank doesn't unfortunately.

Swear to god he’ll be 34 with 3 goals in 6 years and people will still be bleating on about the first quarter of the covid training session season. Turn it in, the lad is crap. Can’t hit a barn door, can’t hold the ball up and can’t even jump to win a header anymore.

What??? He got put clean through on goal for crying out loud, what the hell are you talking about??

That Faes had Lewin in his arse pocket.

Thought he won a fair few in the first half personally
