2017/18 Dominic Calvert-Lewin

[ExpatinBangkok]

At the moment he is not good enough as a starting prem striker as others have said. In a few more years he should be decent, possible a top English striker. But he tries hard and works hard ( and has a hot Gf) , so theres that

 

[CRIMHEAD]

He's just inconsistent and isn't quite up to dealing with the elite defenders yet. But he was great today. Tons of balls his way, got his head on most of them, and his pace got to balls others wouldn't get. Worked his tail, off, too.

 

[Toffee Carl]

Very good in the second half.

He needs firing out of a cannon into the sun for that celebration though.

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

I think he'd work much better as a supplier in a front two

He's very unselfish and can find a pass well

He's not a lone striker, not yet, but give him a striking partner and I reckon he'd be extremely useful

 

[NilSatisOptimum]

Just about a perfect target man performance and know one deserved a goal more, well maybe Davies.

He needs firing out of a cannon into the sun for that celebration though.

For the kids, my lad was full of the Calvert Lewin lawn mower goal celebration before the match, he is near cult status now for the young ones.

Wouldn't be surprised Big Sam seeing the same stuff Koeman saw in him.

He's only 20 ffs, he's been leading the line through this god awful period we've just endured and has played almost every game, he has given absolutely everything he's got and now we are playing with more confidence watch him go, sometimes I really don't know what fans want from some of our players especially the youngsters, we should be supporting and encouraging them not knocking their confidence at every opportunity, you say he is not good enough as a starting Premiership striker, I guarantee apart from the top 6 he would walk into any of the teams.

 

[Gwladys St. Glory]

Could probably do with slightly less of the backheels and more of the shield work but there's a player there, just needs the match time to build up situational awareness as he's fundamentally sound for his age.

Still think he needs to learn how to finish properly, but he's got a lot of tools to build on. Good performance again today second half at least.

Agreed

This kid is special in terms of improvement, easily the most improve youngster in the entire league. He keeps adding something to his game every couple of months. It will be foolish to brush him aside as one of those who won’t make it at the TOP level

When he first join us, he looks out of depth. Can’t even trap and hold the ball well. Can’t dribble, can’t handle big defenders. He improved on that and look decent now, and today he even add back heels and no look flicks to his game.

His improvement is all round and adding some elements to his game every couple of months. I expect him to pick up his finishing ability pretty soon.

The back heels won us the game ffsssss

And lost possession up the pitch about 3 other times and I didn't even catch the first 25 mins. There's a time and place for everything. Keep yer knees down, snowflake.

Im glad Sam keept him in the line up. Great goal aswell
