2022/23 Dominic Calvert-Lewin

[Simon Buttle]

It's a really short career and this might be his only shot at a World Cup. Given the year he's had where he's missed so much football, he's never turning down the opportunity to go to a World Cup, and as an ambitious athlete, nor should he.

For what it's worth, I think he'd probably have to rack up at least a goal a game between now and then to get the call.

More than anything I reckon Southgate is going to want to see him looking fit and involved in games (like the other day) He knows that Dom will score goals if he is given the service in the right areas.

Southgate had to submit a provisional squad Friday just gone lads.

I very much doubt he put Doms name on the list.

The list is 55 players so he'll probably be in the squad over Richard Wright

And Alli

I hope Dominic makes the England world cup squad, because, if he does, he will have to have banged a load of goals in for us over the next few games. Seriously though, the 4 week down time and our games in the States during the world cup period look to be an ideal opportunity for Dominic to work on his match sharpness.

I thought Dom was properly switched on yesterday, he created his goal out of nothing.

Australia

Australia is right, I stand corrected.

If he gets picked it means he's doing well for us, which is great.

My point was we pay his wages and we should be his priority, especially after contributing so little for the last 12 months. Would hate to see him returned injured when he could have had a few weeks off.

I'm surprised Gollum wasn't calling it a foul when he scored on Saturday on MOTD

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

I don't think he'll go to the World Cup

Southgate already didn't seem to rate him and he's barely played this season, which would have been his only chance

Southgate has stuck with Pickford for the most part, so being an Everton player isn't the automatic knock against you that it's been with so many other England managers, but I don't think D C L is in the plans

It's disappointing for him, but he's young and will have further chances if he can stay fit. Having some time off will probably help him on the fitness front

 

[davek]

The World Cup.

Lol.

 

[Toffeepot]

The World Cup.

Lol.

I know right, hilarious
As funny as when you were saying Dom was out for the season

Dont reckon Southgate was at our game watching DCL but more the 2 CBs

 

[Goodisongang]

Surely no chance he goes the world cup tbf,.Wilson and Toney deserve it more based on form.

DCL is different to all the other strikers likely to be called up though, if your chasing a goal could put DCL on to win the headers etc, so never know.

Rather he just concentrates on getting fully fit than sitting on the bench for England though
