2022/23 Dominic Calvert-Lewin

[NilSatisOptimum]

Fair enough. But going on his history this year less than 50% methinks.

Just hoping he has been encouraged to come off if he feels anything at all.

Need him next week to be sure.

What was his injury? Did it look a serious one?

Onana played a ball behind their defender...DCL wasnt able to get around him and looked at Onana.

Had the look of someone thinking, "just couldnt get to it"...

....then next thing hes on the deck.

Didnt look like anything...but he then walked off the pitch for the sub.

 

[ToffeeTim]

He started the game pretty well, but then his body let him down again. I feel sorry for him, and not sure what's next for him.

But it goes back to recruitment. We should have replaced him last summer. And Thelwell and to a lesser degree Lampard are responsible for not doing so. Lampard kept saying he was the team's no.9. He should have demanded a new striker and not allowed the recruitment team to build the side round a player with fitness issues.

Really hope to see him on the pitch next week please be fit

Season over for him. Feared it would happen.

I'm just sick of him at this point tbh. Its obviously not all his fault, he clearly doesn't want to keep getting injured but it doesn't make him any less useless. He can't ever be counted on. We really missed a trick when we turned down Arsenal trying to buy him. He would've done ok there as a luxury sub. He's done realistically after us now. Nobody half decent or even mediocre is taking a chance on him unless he slashes his wage demands.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Prepare the team without him for next Sunday.

Let him get treatment and see how he feels next weekend. If he is feeling ok and wants to play, then put him on the bench and take it from there.

Saw he didn't stay down the tunnel and came back to bench 2nd half

 

[MikeH72]

If Maupay starts next week we are brown bread.

I think Dyche just didnt want to risk him, slightest knock, bring him off, fully expect him to start next week

Away from home. Probably at home would be having early diagnostics.

Hamstring not groin according BBC write up? Better or worse than his groin niggle? God knows.

A big thank you to Kevin Thelwell who allowed us to finish 2 transfer windows with a broken Dominic Calvert Lewin as our only real goal threat

 

[Debunkology]

He's too young to be like a 37 year old David Haye.

Lampard wanted to build his team around him and "Star Boi"
