2023/24 Dominic Calvert-Lewin

[allen]

Why?

Just so we can give DCL a goal?

There are some bizarrely high strung folk in here.

It’s his goal. I’d say the same if it were any other player.

Why wouldn’t you want our number 9 to be credited with a confidence-boosting goal?

I see no other reason than irrational, personal animosity.

 

[Toffeelover]

Lone striker. Par for the course !

At Everton, yes.

How much longer are we gonna persist with him in this system

He was happy to take Richarlison’s goal v Brentford the other year. Swings and roundabouts

But it’s not his goal it hasn’t ever worked like that it’s annoying for him and for us because it would help us if he scored but it just isn’t his goal!

Probs until the Summer when we hopefully can sign someone better than Beto and Chermiti.

He got credited with an assist yesterday. I knew he would come good

 

[Bebeto]

He got credited with an assist yesterday. I knew he would come good

Joke aside, I think there was more desire yesterday from dcl...better performance from him but yes still missing goals right now. Hopefully with doucs on his way back that could also help dcl to regain that confidence in front of goal

With what ? We haven’t got a pot to pee in

 

[MikeH72]

Hojlund there with the barefaced cheek to make his own goal, dropped a shoulder to send the defender the chippy and pinged it in from outside the box. Doesn’t he know he’s only allowed to score if the players around him give him 4 open goals?

 

[Nymzee]

With what ? We haven’t got a pot to pee in

We will when we sell Onana and Branthwaite.

 

[f.t.r.s]

Wasn't that Gordon?

Calvert-Lewin took one off Richarlison against Brentford a couple of years ago, so it's swings and roundabou

 

[MACCA75]

Wasn't that Gordon?

Gordon was a different one.

Ally McCoist gave it to him

I think Harrison did too

You're turning into a fantastic Davek Mk. 2 for some reason.

Hojlund's been a United meme all season, he's got 4 goals in 18 league games. DCL has 3 as last night's was awarded to Harrison, otherwise they'd be on the exact same goals total from the exact same number or games. Naturally they're levels apart though.

Glad to see you're happy our striker is struggling for goals, at least someone's benefitting out of this I suppose
