2024/25 Dominic Calvert-Lewin

[davids]

Still don't get why there's so much hate on here.

Not hate, reality, his stats tell his story.

I hope when/if he comes back in different colours, he gets a good reception.

We all know his strengths and weaknesses but either way, he's been here man and boy and deserves it.

 

[Street end man]

I would wager a guess that most PL centre backs would rather face him than Beto.

More hate on here than at the match in my opinion.

We have to trust Moyes. If he wants him at the price the club want to pay and DCL agrees, then let's see how it goes. If DCL doesn't want that and we don't budge on our valuation then we all move on.

There is a long history of many sexually repressed men posting hate for Dom in this thread. It seems their for years flacid members were twinged to life by the sight of DCL in culottes. The shame, confusion and joy were too much to process, so they posted mean stuff on here.

Probably best he goes. The damage is done. They'll never forgive.

Time to say goodbye to Dom.

Exactly.

 

[Mick OMalley]

I really hope he leaves. Negative energy just seems to follow him around and he divides the fanbase in such an extreme way that we really don’t need going forward. I want this summer to be a hard reset, there is a good positive mood around the club at the moment. We don’t need the toxic baggage that he brings with him. Nothing against him personally, he is just too divisive. He also needs a fresh start in his own career just as much as we need one.

Absolutely spot on, we want a centre forward the whole fan base can get behind, we're still debating this fella 8 years later, let's move on he isn't going to improve

What will you miss most about him if he does leave?

Not having a back up striker.

 

[Daytripper]

What will you miss most about him if he does leave?

The wind up merchants saying he should stay

The wind up merchants saying he should stay

Winds me up seeing that your last match was in 2011 so you haven't even seen him play.

My last match at Goodison, Villa 2-2.

I can’t believe there are genuine shouts for him to stay.

We want to reduce our wage bill - he’s one of our highest earners.

We want a fit, robust squad - he’s a crock.

We want committed players - he’s ran his deal down hoping for better offers.

We want consistent goalscoring strikers - he’s hasn’t hit double figures since Covid and in the last two seasons has gone on monstrous goalless streaks.

There are some mitigating circumstances for the above points but we wouldn’t touch him with a barge pole if he was coming from another club. Are our standards so through the floor because he’d be a signing of convenience?

For £1.5m he’s been a really good servant and the goal against Palace will live long in the memory but we simply must part ways now - for his sake as much as ours.
