2023/24 Dominic Calvert-Lewin

[Bez2k2k]

I can’t believe our own fans boo’d him when he went off injured, racial abuse towards Onana, the incident with Gordon last year, what have we become, no wonder players don’t want to join us, we keep whinging about the state of the board, which I agree is a mess but the state of some of our fans is embarrassing too, this club is rotten throughout.

What you have to remember is that this is a tiny minority of so called fans. It does not represent the whole fan base but what it does is give us all a bad name. If I was a player I would be thinking why would I even try hard when you are booing my team mate off whos just smashed his face in.

We need a huge banner, massive, with a picture of Dom scoring that diving header against Palace, hung from the Gwladys against Wolves. We need a picture of Onana doing his little dance with Gueye, we need to get behind the team again.

COYB!! That is the motto, and that goes for us aswell!

...add to that the fans on that Twitter space last night defending Mason Greenwood.

It's beginning to really dawn on me that these people follow the same football club as I do and it's depressing lol

People get frustrated because he's always injured and we have no replacement when that it happens. I'm amazed people find it so shocking that in the heat of the moment when we're losing 2-0 and he gets taken off that there were a few angry words shouted.

I think what people find surprising is that fans look at this situation and blame and voice their frustrations directly at a model professional, who has had a really tough time over the last few years, and some rotten luck, instead of the true sources of their frustration.

It's really stupid behaviour.

It isn't just football fans though, the blame game dominates every aspect of life now. Mainstream and social media are breaking down standards of behaviour and people seem to think any problem should be addressed by pointing the finger, rather than doing something positive.

I can understand the frustration over Dom's injury record, but you have to be spectacularly thick to blame him for this latest setback.

Just think, he was a Father the other day, so that means hes been having SEX!!!!!!!!

An utter joke if you ask me.

The dirty stop out!

Being an Everton fan (or any club) doesn't give you a free pass to not be a bell.

I mean look at some of the people on here!

 

[Toffeelover]

But look at the long term damage it has done to you.... you seem unable to think with any degree of reason now.

For you to reponse like that raises ?s on your ability to reason.

He went headfirst into the keeper. I don't think you can faulter his commitment

Then why did the keeper not get broken but DCL did?!?!?!?!

He clearly went into him facefirst, which is the wrong way to do it, and he did it on purpose to injure himself so he can hinder us. I will somehow attribute this to his clothing later down the line, but can't think of a stupid connection like that now.

 

[Street end man]

When 2 big muscular blokes collide unexepectedly and accidently like that at a joint closing speed of probably 30mph it does not bode well, especially if it's shoulder against face. Just amazed he stayed on the pitch. Again i don't think he's as good as people make out but he's won me over in the bottle stakes. Just hoping his run of bad luck is over now so we can finally see if he's the real deal

If anything the kid was TOO brave, but I refuse to abuse and denigrate an Everton player for showing bravery and for breaking bones in his quest to get us a goal.

Great post. I simply don't know what's become of our fans in recent years. Some of our fanbase is utterly toxic. Even players from other clubs have noticed it over recent season, including the former England and former Watford goalkeeper Ben Foster.

I hope we don't force Onana out the way we forced out Lukaku and Barkley and Stones.

This sort of negativity off the field will not improve us on the field.

Not sure that makes any sense tbhwy.

 

[blueblue]

I am guessing that if DCL actually did have surgery on his cheek then we would have heard by now.

 

[Gwladys St. Glory]

In the age of information if you leave a gap, people will fill it; typically with shi*.

Agree, it's embarrassing.
