2021/22 Dominic Calvert-Lewin

Couldn't disagree more.

Even half fit he's better than what we'd get restructuring the team without him in it.

he was a nuisance today, harried and pulled defenders around. He isn't fit so not as good as he can be but he deserves to start and he played well today

Agreed. Very important player

I'm glad he's got 70 minutes on field under his belt today. His body is still playing catch up from the Summer, then the injury.

It was good seeing his name in the starting lineup.

 

[jonnyboy316]

Gave us somebody to play off. I wish he would stop trying to shoot from outside the box though. He has not got that in him

 

[grandjoeblue]

Brilliant footballer. We'll miss him when he's gone.

He's been very unlucky this year.

Fantastic target man today brought other players in with his hold up play, had the Leeds defence on the rack all game

 

[bitter-no-better]

Thought it was interesting how often he was pinning their centre backs today as we were building attacks.

Don't recall him using his strength in that way too often before. Was similar to how Lukaku play, and if you get the likes of Richarlison, Gordon, Gray, Dele running off him it should be a really useful tool for us

Impressed me a lot how well he held it up especially 2nd half. Definitely helps the players around him.

 

[NewRadical]

He made a difference yesterday. I'd forgotten a few things until the highlights reminded me last night.

A good shot across goal that was well saved and a through ball for Gordon (my MotM) who should've done better.

Great to have him back and a performance to build on.

 

[Trublue12]

He'll score one and go on a run. He's starting to look sharper.

[Zeitgeist]

I thought he was very good yesterday. Held the ball well, linked with players, dragged defenders everywhere. Good effort from a wide position.

He was knackered by the time he came off, hopefully get his fitness back up over the next few weeks

 

[Toffeelover]

Played well but needs game time to get really sharp again.

 

[Joey66]

Led the line well, the ball stuck up field helped the midfield to keep Leeds pinned back - not 100% fit, but a welcome return .....

 

[ChoccieStarfish]

Yep, two more matches of 75 mins or so and he'll be sharp again.

Did a lovely hold up game yesterday but one thing Carlo did well with him is to teach him to be a poacher in the box too. He needs a bit of that back

 

[Joey66]

Compare his efforts yesterday then look at Ronaldo at United - they will come in for him - then again poch if he gets the job wants Harry Kane ....
