2024/25 Dominic Calvert-Lewin

[Spadge Vernacular]

Hilarious aren’t you. So you discounted the part where I said, ‘apart from being a dire finisher’. Where did I say anything about finishing Pickford’s hoofs? you clown.

Jog on you fool.

Christ sake, I was just agreeing with you!

No need to be mean and say nasty things.

 

[Nyhus]

But "outscored"? That suggests either of them have scored a meaningful number to form a comparison.

This is the kind of righteous pedantics im here for. To me, the connotations of ‘outscored’ relates to an expectation of both sides scoring a lot, but one scoring more than the other. Like that opening game against chelsea years ago under RM. They outscored us, but we still got 3 goals - which is a lot against Chelsea. Saying DCL outscored Beto is like saying Villa outscored us the other night. Its factual, but the word ‘outscored’ paints a diff picture than what actually happened.

Perfect scenario,get 5 mill off one of our relegation rivals for him.

Is right, though would be happy to take 5 quid for him, to at least save us from having to endure seeing him in a blue shirt one more time.

 

[blue in oxford]

i think by the end of the season we will want him to sign new contract

 

[Efcjake]

You've summed the situation up nicely there mate.

The fact that he hasn't been able to finish Pickfords hoofs up the pitch, or anyone else playing Dyche's Jurassic football is a disgrace.

Your lad has been badly found out now. Stop making excuses and face the music. He's crap and has been for ages.

Four managers he's looked the same hopeless Bambi on ice he's always been.

"Doesn't get service lad"
*Misses sitter*
"Doesn't get enough service lad"
*Misses another sitter*
"Don't play to his strengths lad"

Etc

maddening isnt it? It's ok to say he's not good enough for what we need right now. Move on already and get someone else in.

 

[ZissouBlue]

It’s fair to say he used to be good enough for us but hasn’t been for some time. If we were a well run club, we would have sold him nearer to the height of his value. Chermiti and Broja’s injuries have really put a wrinkle on what should have been a straightforward thing this January: selling Dom for any amount and binning off Beto back to Italy to anyone who will give us fair value. Now, there’s no good option until another capable striker is brought in. Which is one of the hardest things in the world to do if you’re Everton.

 

[RomanReigns]

since richarlison left he looks crap

Tbf you demonstrated the limits of your attempts at insight. Best to just watch and see what those who understand football do, especially those in the game.

 

[windymiller]

Banjo. Arse. Cow’s. You rearrange it.

That's a damning stat. Barlow was a comedy figure.

 

[Harryflashman]

That's a damning stat. Barlow was a comedy figure.

You’re not wrong but I wasn’t laughing that game at the pit when he missed about 37 one on ones .

That stat comparing the two has blown my mind a bit to be honest

Is his goalless streak going to beat last year's Spadge?

At sixteen now. Remind me how many he went without scoring last year?
