2024/25 Dominic Calvert-Lewin

[Tony’s Carp]

It’s insane the excuses made for this lad.

He seems like a very likeable guy but he’s crap at his very well paid job.

Sorry but that's incredibly unfair. He's really not that likeable.

 

[Straqayoko]

At least £21 million in earnings from Everton over 8 years but he's a victim and brilliant, everyone else is rubbish for not putting it on a plate and when he misses even those he's still brilliant and everyone's wrong and we don't need goals because he's brilliant and must start every game but no goals because of everyone else lmao

 

[BlueStevie35]

Sorry but that's incredibly unfair. He's really not that likeable.

Why isn’t he out of curiosity?

 

[billyblue80]

I don't think he is a good finisher when he has much time to think

 

[Hinchcliffe's Corner]

What's the latest excuses?

If we all turn around, close our eyes and put our fingers in our ears he might be remotely worth a hundred grand a week?

After 8 years that's the only time he's been remotely competent. I agree that wearing a dress once is quite possibly the greatest achievement ever of liberalfootbalisms and henceforth we should persevere with another 8 years of inadequate footabalisms for fear of being called bad words.

Nobody's making any latest excuses for him at all, in fact everyone universally thinks he's absolutely plop now. Rant away like.

Surley, If he was likeable hed be liked?

 

[jackyboy]

Can't believe we didn't move him on in the summer

 

[billyblue80]

I would be starting Beto as I think he would get more goals even if his all round play is not good. But we will labour on with Dom

 

[Huyton Layne]

I'd rather our close range chances and one on ones fall to Gana. That's how clinical DCL is. Seems mad that clinical finishing cant be coached. Like I get that the best players do it naturally but surely a former striker can tell him ways to set the keeper and round him or slot past him.

He may be sold this window, though Moyes might convince him to stay. If he stays and Moyes can get the team playing football he'll score, no doubt.

Some will look at the below and dismiss it.

The Stats Behind Dominic Calvert-Lewin's Absence

I’m confident in saying that the vast majority of Evertonians would label the club’s #9, Dominic Calvert-Lewin, as the Toffees’ standout performer over the past few seasons. The 24-year old English International scored a club and career-high 16 goals in 33 Premier League appearances last season...

Some will look at these sort of stats in the link below and blame Dom and not the manager and how he neutered any semblence of attacking play.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin's thankless task​

Dom, like the rest of the team will need serious work to get back from the horror show they have been working under but I understand this and am happy to give them, and Moyes a bit more than 94 minutes.

The sign o f a cult is never associating blame to the person who is most responsible for the issue. It's not like Dom has a huge reason for being have a cult following.

 

[GoldenToffee]

Can't believe we didn't move him on in the summer

I think it's a combination of three things:

1. He has a high opinion of himself and wanted to join a team better than us
2. None of these said teams were interested in him
3. Everton valued him too highly as he was our only striker with Dyche's famous Premier League experience

Agreed!

 

[Bob Elstone]

This is on big nose Kev’s plate the fact he’s not signed and will walk on a free.

Another masterclass from the conk.

 

[Toffeepot]

My double amputee nan would have scored it.

He's missed about fifty of them these past sixteen matches.

But it was the ghost of Dyche who put him off.

He definitely has not got 50 big chances this season.
He's missed 11
That's less than:
Watkins 19
Haaland 16
Salah 14
Jackson 13

As a team we've created 23 big chances this season
Saka alone has created 19

 

[Straqayoko]

But but the stats. He's brilliant really. Your own eyes are wrong, you idiots. He. Wore. A. Dress. Once.

But but the stats. He's brilliant really. Your own eyes are wrong, you idiots. Another 8 years and he'll achieve his potential. Another 8 years of £21 million on wages for excuses excuses excuses, no goals and everybody else's fault for no return. Nobody has been offside or has a lower shot conversion in the entire top leagues in Europe this season but every other team in Europe is worse than us and everyone elses fault?
