2022/23 Dominic Calvert-Lewin

[Nymzee]

No mate your doing it again, I haven't suggested once mina should play upfront, I've said by your logic of Onana being tall why shouldn't mina play upfront, but for the 10th time they both shouldn't be played up front.

Fellaini wasn't useless upfront no, but I'm sure he was only played upfront when we had zero other options, in sure Cahill even played upfront over him when no strikers were fit.

We have fit strikers

Do you really call Maupay and Simms strikers.

 

[Nyhus]

You boys need to get a room.

 

[Goodisongang]

Do you really call Maupay and Simms strikers.

I struggle to call Simms an actual football player tbh but maupay played in the right system isnt a terrible striker, he's been terrible for us but don't think he's been played to his strengths.

He's played 60 percent of one game fgs

Yep and he was awful, he didn't use his strength to bully people which is the sole reason he started.

I think he's a good finisher but he's a million miles from the premier League.

Agreed 1 game and that's it bloody give the lad a chance it's not his fault were in this mess ffs.our only option imo is to play him and maupy upfront and see how it pans out..

Up front on own no one close to him ,we were playing the ball around the back which we're crap at instead of pumping the ball up also, we needed to get closer to him like we did against arsenal

You could have played Dixie Dean in his pomp, the way we played the other night & he would have had no service no goals .... it's the rest of the team we should be worrying about - slow predictable - ageing defenders & an inept midfield - it was the Lampard's team play all over again not like Dyches first game - press hunt in packs etc v a poor redcrap team ....

Like the other ten then on Monday night's performance hard to pick a MOTM..... we were pathetic ....

Should have kept Rondon. Releasing him without getting any sort of replacement in January is worse than negligence its incompetence.

 

[MikeH72]

I’m not sure anyone actually said this whilst being serious, Mike

I am sure that some people have.

 

[Stevie Nicks Bootleg]

He did take pens? And it wasn’t this team, he had a lot of creative players around him. And it also was during lockdown football in front of no fans so counts for very little.

Even if it did count for 'very little', which it doesn't, he had a good season in 2019/20, with a decent goals return before lockdown.

It does count for very little just like our “wins at Anfield and the Emirates”. None of it was real.

Thought signing him in the first bloody place was worse than negligence... lol

Well, it obviously isn't as good, but it still counts, as did all his goals in 2019/20 (all of which came before lockdown, which was most of the season).
