2019/20 Dominic Calvert-Lewin

[Papa Shango]

We dont play it because we have no flexibility in our attack to play the one up. it's not a virtue. We're limited.

Ancelotti likes to go 442 though more often than not so its not that much of an issue.

I see, so, bottom line, it's down to me to replace DCL before you agree he's not the answer?

Yes.

Can’t replace someone with no one.

If your answer is Lukaku, OK. Can we get him at all, least of all at a price that enables us to get the winger, midfielder, CB that we also need?

There’s 11 games left. The lad could quite easily get 20 goals this season. What do people thing a 20 goal a season striker means? It doesn’t mean he scores EVERY chance. We had Rom and he was treated the same. We deserve what we get sometimes...

Rom was and is a far superior finisher than is Dom. He’s coming in but he’s still not clinical. Don’t know why he can’t be improving but still obvious have flaws. It’s not a great vs terrible situation. He’s a good striker at the moment but at the same time he’s very frustrating.

We've gone from wishing DCL would score to expecting him to score,

I agree! He's a "good striker" and that's it. My opinion- If you have been watching Everton since 1956 like I have, he is well down at the bottom of the strikers we've had. Let's go from the 80,s - Sharp - Andy Gray - Latchford -Lineker - Big Duncan - Lukaku ( couldnt take to the lazy side to his play ) DCL is NOT and never will be as good for Everton as these.

Welcome to every thread here

Lukaku was the better scorer, but DCL is becoming an equal or better all-around forward. Dude does everything (hold up, p above average. Including scoring now.

Hopefully he is our #9 moving forward.

It will be our front two if we allow Brands to continue his disastrous reign.

Sold.

I for one dont believe he'll be here next season.

Do not think so but by heck will get a shedfull of money to replace him.

Is there any positive in the club that you can point or is it all in the negative. Bit like Chamberlain waving his letter.

Ancelotti. Holgate's progress, Richarlison's form.

That's pretty much it.
