2017/18 Dominic Calvert-Lewin

[Barnfred 55]

Imagine the horror when he looks at his career choice and sees them go up and us go down.

Poor Dominic, such a likeable chap but doesn't get any luck.

Think he touched lucky with his missus mate.

Absolutely nobody near him whenever he was busting a gut to win the ball. Theres a very good striker in Dom, he'll be great for us.

 

[CerberusFX]

I think he will amke a good CF just not a prolific one. he will be used to bring others into the game as his biggest asset. I think anyway.

It's a bit unfair on him, he will be a very good player but at the moment is probably a top championship player. He really shouldn't be expected to lead the line and be our main source of goals as he is at the moment, ideally he would be out on loan somewhere like Fulham or Leeds playing week in week out with less pressure on him.

Think he touched lucky with his missus mate.

Sadly when he makes love to her all he can see is Ronalds face urging him to push out to the wing now, their relationship is doomed.

Totally agree. Pinning our striking hopes on an absolute rookie, a promising one though, is totally unfair on the boy.

That image is now burnt into my brain.

Thanks x

I don't think we can judge him yet. Average team performance since January last season, and this season hasn't started yet. Not fair. He's performing really well at U20 and U21 level, so now it's time to give him some time in a decent team - hold judgement

Prediction: He will be a good and popular part of a strong and competitive squad once we get rid of Golf Lundgren

Not sure he's a top Championship player tbh. Not seen anything from him to suggest that.

Koeman after the game last night: 'this is not a time to criticise the players.'

Barely a minute later he says that Calvert-Lewin has 'no excuses' for being isolated up front.

Couldn't believe it when he followed it up with, 'that's how we play.'

honestly that whole section of his comments made no sense to me

all I can see when he is speaking is the face of another ex-manager that I won't give a crap about once gone. Hopefully my prediction will be realized sooner rather than later

I don't know if it was a bit of a Freudian slip, or if he actually thinks that it's an acceptable mindset.

He definitely has the air of a manager who is losing the plot.

Think he's a good option to have, and will only develop, he's being forced to fill very big shoes. I don't imagine any one, himself included thought he'd be playing the minutes he is.

He's raw he's young.

Whoever followed a 30 goal a season striker had an uphill struggle.

There needs to be a fair realignment of expectation. He played a handful of games last season.

Give him a chance he will prove useful.
