2023/24 Dominic Calvert-Lewin

[Daveysgingerlovechild]

If his major injuries are behind him, he will score the goals to keep us up. He's a quality player probably the best in the air in the league and his hold up play is very good. he probably gets sick of craning his neck at all the high balls but it's undeniable he's had a huge impact already. His box play is top notch.

I doubt we could attract better without spending a fortune and being in Europe yet he still gets derided by some, mainly because of the clothes he wears which doesn't really matter.

Andy Carroll was Big Dunc light, constantly injured with niggles, Dom has had major injuries but outside of those never really got any injuries(I know you're joking about Carroll btw lol )

It's all crystal ball gazing to an extent. If he's put it all behind him, then great.

But his quad, groin or hamstring could go at any time. A lot of it will be down to how his body is managed. By him and the club.

By the same token he could get a Bolassie style injury or end up on the end of a bad tackle.

Just so hard to predict a players fate, so many factors.

….maybe Bergkamp.

Haha caught it before you deleted but no, not that one, that goal was unreal. It's bugging me. Definitely seen it before.

I swear there's a famous goal where the player does the same fake turn as yesterday. Going to spend my Monday looking for it.

Not a famous goal, but was very similar to Louis Saha's goal - i think against Arsenal, exact same turn and curls it low into the corner.

It may have been against WBA. Not sure.

Yeah it wa sagainst WBA;

I don't think I'm ever gonna find it tbh. It's a bit different to Dom's as he did a sort of Cruyff turn.

This one I'm thinking of is back to goal, maybe edge of the box, opens his whole body up to go one way, then turns the complete opposite. Maybe I just dreamt it.

Stays fit he will certainly become are all time top goal scorer in the prem. If it wasn’t for the last 2-3 years of injuries he probably would already be.

Something in the back of my mind is saying that Lukaku scored a goal off a turn like that

Ah yeah, very similar.

Lovely player when fit was Saha.

Honestly don't know, it just stuck in my brain as soon as he did it. Maybe I'll find it in a year or two lol

Great goal brilliantly taken yesterday - he just looks to be more comfortable, injury free and he just looks happy.

Have to say his injury has been brilliantly managed by Dyche, and with Beto we have given Dom a bit of a buffer now - hope Dom stays fit and bags loads more goals going forward.

Finger crossed Dyche is handling Dele as well as DCL, and that pays off.

Care to list all the times he has dabbled with skirts and handbags, and list all the injuries?

Was he seen in skirts every weekend? Dabbled in handbags for a couple of months each of the last few seasons?

They where CULLOTTES ffs.

They where CULLOTTES ffs.

I know, but I'm replying to a post that mentions skirts, and to be honest it really doesn't matter what the hell he was wearing - it was a stupid conclusion to try to draw.

And...I didn't actually say he did wear a skirt. I just asked for a list of all the times he has.

Hal Robson-Kanu scored one against Belgium in the Euros years back
