2024/25 Dominic Calvert-Lewin

[Everton_Gary]

We could have used someone winning headers at midfield in the 2nd half on Saturday.

Wasn't what Moyes was trying to do. So we didn't need anyone winning useless headers there.

 

[AsiaAsia82]

Maybe played his last game for us.

Shame the fans didn’t booo him off again.

So we just lost them instead? 31 long balls from Pickford in the match. 14 aerial duels for Beto, 5 won.

It's not all his fault mind you, but yes we needed someone winning useless headers.

Or we just don't knock it long every time and play out from the back?

 

[Efcjake]

Like Broja ......

A loan is a bit a different than handing a crock a contract.

Well we still are, it's lessened to some extent under Moyes, but these guys still aren't capable of consistently playing out of the back. The long ball will be a staple until the end of the season.

I don't mean handing him a contract - keeping him fit to keep us up would have been nice we need a couple of decent no 9s DM is trying to get rid of Beto!
It makes that harder now ....

Play it out from the back against a team that presses high and practices it daily?
Yea that would've worked brilliantly

Headers going back to Brighton...

 

[Toffeepot]

Headers going back to Brighton...

And what about the headers that find a teammate? Or when he holds it up?
You know, things our other forwards can't do

Well Beto is one of 2 strikers under contract for next season so I suggest we support him.

Dominic may have to take a short contract at Sheffield Utd or some other championship team to work his way back into the big leagues after his form and latest injury.

‘An’ Everton supporter.

Don't they teach anything in Oxford?

Beto will end up in the Walton 5 a side league when he leaves here.

It's interesting that the transfer rumors are only active for one of our strikers and it's not the one with 6 months left on his contract.

I am sure we will be very generous and allow him to train with us over preseason while his agent scours the globe to secure him a contract in a league that suits his current ability.
