2024/25 Dominic Calvert-Lewin

Well at least that answers the question I've had.

The valuation of 25m is completely unrealistic at this point. The club have handled this very poorly all summer.

A free transfer is a bad outcome for the club

25 million hahhahahahhahahahahahha

Hahahahahhahaha

Hahahhahahah

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Surely we could've found a middle ground somewhere? I personally think that £25m is asking too much considering the circumstances...

 

[MikeH72]

Chelsea fans look made up at the prospect in the replies

 

[MikeH72]

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Look up.

So they haven’t made a bid, and have just had discussions about a swap deal? What about United’s bid?

25 milllion pounds. Thought it was a joke hahaha

 

[Gilbert..]

Exactly this. He's not as bad as many make out, he's just not that great. A 1 in 4 striker who got worse after injury. Sadly, he's the best we've probably got, or will get, for the foreseeable.

Lets be honest. If he hadnt had that little purple patch back in 2020 would anyone be rating him so highly.
He's alright. But if i was at a club with funds and options he wouldnt be anywhere on my list. Which atm seems to be the case.

Oh Mike.

Just accept defeat.

This is pedantic nonsense, we both know Everton have priced him out of moves all summer.

That's not how that works. Those easy chances will increase is xG, regardless of whether or not the goal goes in.

That's why if his xG is much higher than his actual goal total, he's not converting the chances at the rate he should.

In a single match, if a team's xG is higher than it's actual goals scored, then you can consider them a bit unlucky.

If it happens over a larger stretch of matches, it's probably not luck.

It's an interesting stat but it's relative to actual goals scored. And really, if you're watching a match and we miss 3 sitters and hit the bar 3-4 times, I don't need a number to tell me we're either bad at finishing or unlucky.

Misphrased it mate, I meant it drops his xg conversion rate a lot. I understand how it works

 

[Maltese_Falcon]

25m ?! Lol he is not even worth that if his contract wasn't expiring.

 

[Raino85]

There is absolutely no chance Dyche would of played Fofana ahead of Beto

 

[Delargeinho]

Yes mate, thats all he gives us, goals.

SMH.

5 goals more last season, would have meant a couple of more points, as many of our games were pretty close resultwise...

I just think the Villa 0:0, the Palace 1:1 to get a way with a rather lucky but cheeky win.

You sounded convinced that there’d been a bid from United, that’s all.

Anyway WHERE is Mik?!?!

 

[Nymzee]

Club are doing him dirty.

Fire your anger at them.

I accept your unconditional surrender on this topic.
