2023/24 Dominic Calvert-Lewin

[T LEAFE]

I think Dom does a decent defensive job at free kicks and corners. He's often getting his head to clear them. Maybe we missed his defensive qualities for that silly header from the cat abuser

Calvert-Lewin headed an exact replica of Beto’s goal right at the keeper against Burnley in December.

Something about him not getting chances.

Laughing that you picked a chance from 3 months ago to argue that he gets chances

I agree, I just find it ironic that you've picked a chance from so long ago.

The isolation of DCL was a tactical problem mostly, but not the return of goals. He is 19th at taking shots, 10th at xG in the league, 7 less goals than expected, 20 games without a goal with 3 goals all season, as the main striker. Would be a different story, if he had 10 goals at 15 x goals, like Nunez or Jackson. I am happy that he has been fit for half a year, but it was overdue to drop him.

Beto also missed too many chances, but he got a goal at least in the first starting in months.

I just picked that one because it was essentially a carbon copy of the Beto goal. If that was the only chance he’d missed I might give him the benefit of the doubt.

I suppose DCL’s influence in the dressing room has to be taken into account.
Just think about what has happened to Tom Davies since he is no longer under DCL’s sartorial tutelage.

I did not recognise him without you naming him.

My my my now we know why he went with the long hair lol

 

[Zatara]

He and Beto have to be sold in the summer.

Time has run out for both really.

 

[Frenk]

He does score goals. It’s that simple.

 

[Titus Bramble]

Could do with a goal I reckon

Hey Mr Parmesan, do you know Mr Campari?

DCL though

It was nothing like the same chance.

The argument wasn't about him getting chances, it was that DCL missed a carbon copy of the chance Beto scored.

He's had plenty of chances in the past 3 months to score and simply hasn't. That one was just the most comparable to Beto's goal.

But don't let that interrupt the narrative of it being anybody else's fault but his that he can't score a goal for half a season.

 

[Efcjake]

Beto scored a goal and now there's no legs to stand on in here.

It's a shame what he's doing to you all.

It's ok to admit that he's not the Ancelotti player any longer folks, let it go.

He needs to let it go as well and focus on making an impact off the bench

But the chance wasnt even the same.

So stick the narrative up your arsehole, mate.

DCL has missed a fair few chances and 20 games without a goal is unacceptable, and Beto deserved a start based on DCLs form.

DCL is a better player, though. I think once he gets his goal he’ll go on a bit of a run. I just hope Dyche gives enough time at the end of a game to try and get one.
