2019/20 Dominic Calvert-Lewin

[catcherintherye]

And didn't score from open play before then.

He's the answer, I'm tellin' ya.

I'm not sure about that, but some of the positions taken on him do seem a bit odd!

Hopefully cenks cameo pushes him further down the line

 

[Nymzee]

Thought he showed some nice touches when he came on. Decent left wing cross for Richy and a nice through ball to Walcott later on.

 

[Zaschrona]

Played well today.

 

[Zezti]

Good usual athletic performance from him, and also as usual nowhere near the goal.

 

[Kirkles]

People very over critical of him , playing a very difficult role up front on his own where the midfield are miles away a lot of the time. Think he would be alright in a two upfront .

I’d like to see him get a run of five or six games in a team playing 442 just to see if it made the difference.

If he was on the bench he'd be fractionally less annoying than Walcott.

The problem there is Kean is only 19 and has so far managed that role fine.

And scored zero goals. Define ‘fine’.

 

[Toffeelover]

Give him a spell in the u23.

Calvert lewin has played 3 games this season and had 2 shots. That is a disgrace. Kean surpassed that in his first 20 minute cameo. He will be fine as you have to shoot to stand a chance of scoring.

I know, he’ll be good, I’m just saying the criticism at not scoring should be aimed at both players. It’s only fair.

Different criticisms, though.

Kean has perhaps shown a lack of composure, which is exactly what all young strikers tend to suffer from, but there is a an exciting player there.

Calvert lewin just doesn't do anything meaningful. He plays the easy game with neat little passes, 25 yards from goal. He doesn't bully defenders or run at them. But most disappointing is that he just doesn't take a chance and shoot.

 

[Abraders]

There was a game I think Vs Saints where DCL and Lukaku started upfront together, looked really dangerous for about 5 minutes until DCL went off injured - always thought from then on DCL may benefit from player up top with another striker.

That said, I rate DCL for the most part and have backed him thus far - but he really needs to take his opportunity this season if he wants to make it big time at Everton. Otherwise our transfers will surpass him.

Even then though, it's a squad game and I'm certain he's a good character and option to have around.

Here's hoping he can push on with the added competition from Kean.
