2023/24 Dominic Calvert-Lewin

[billybadger]

After his clear cut opportunities against Liverpool & Utd perhaps he could practice heading the ball in the corner of the goal instead of straight in the middle

Got some leap on him.

Pity it came off his shoulder - because he doesn't keep his eye on the ball.

 

[gonetomorrow]

Maybe he's still not up to speed after all this time but he missed chances yesterday and that's not good.

Does well considering he's nearly always completely isolated, Did well to get a couple shots off from a couple big lumps. Should've done better with his header opportunities.

Beto scores at least one of those headed opportunities last night. Just saying.

Hasn't scored any headers for us yet

Barely been on the pitch like..

I'm not so sure after that free header he had earlier this season. He's got a fiftypence head.

 

[DanEFC92]

Hasn't scored a header since that Palace game 2 seasons ago.

He's one of the best headed players in the whole league.

Didn't Andy Gray say that most people automatically close their eyes when heading the ball but he made sure he kept his open watching the ball for as long as he could. I can't believe the amount of times these top class players go to head the ball only for it to come off their shoulder.

 

[judge]

He's not a natural goalscorer and we're in deep trouble if we have to rely on him to get the goals to keep us up

Hes still a superb number 9 and we are in deep trouble if we have to rely on others.

He wasn't the only one, we had enough chances to win two games, when we hit the bar my foot almost went through the telly ! United led a charmed life indeed.

DCL has scored with his head, of course. But I don't think he relishes it when challenged by defenders and GKs.
