2023/24 Dominic Calvert-Lewin

[MikeH72]

Ah, the training season again.

Ah, the training season again.

You're forgetting everything these days Mikey, not a promising sign.

 

[MisterJ]

He's missed some absolute sitters as well over the last month or two. It's all very well saying he doesn't get the service - he doesn't - but he's had one-on-ones that he fluffed embarrassingly. That Villa miss was jaw-droppingly incompetent.

Is it just confidence? Does he just need one to go in by any means and then be off and running again?

I mean, we do know he can do it.

It was so long ago can you blame me, I can’t remember when I had for breakfast on 27th November 2014 either.

No? Mine was probably Branflakes.

I don’t.

 

[spudmuncher]

He was pushed in the back

Barely touched him , could've headed that ball easily , took the easy option and fell over ... fraud of a player

 

[Joey66]

I don’t.

FGS He earned a cap for England - he was scoring for fun with a playmaker ....

How would you compare his attributes to Chris Wood for example?

He's about the same, but younger - Danny Ings back to goal but injury prone like DCL has been is a closer match ....

I just dont see his qualities anymore, honestly think the injuries have taken away whatever he had to begin with.
Couldnt tell you one thing he is better at than a run of the mill journeyman.
If someone is willing to buy him I think we need to sell and move on.

Wow, so did David Nugent, Matt Jarvis, Jay Bothroyd etc etc

He's better than that - see how many chances he would convert with a decent midfield if a club came in for him with the right fee of course off load him as his injury record is now horrendous....

 

[MikeH72]

And now we have come full circle.

Diaz, Jota and Gakpo are rubbish, Dom would be on 30 goals playing for them.

Just netted his 12th of the season, with a great volleyed finish and his first chance of the game, without missing 3 chances first to get warmed up
