2024/25 Dominic Calvert-Lewin

[Nyhus]

Lukaku was the same but he scored 20 goals a season so it was easy to forgive the nonsense he spouted. Although it did still damage his relationship with the fans. I dont think we ever truly loved lukaku because we knew he wanted to leave.

Disagree. He scored so many goals for us he could spread lies about my sister and i still wouldnt care. Absolutely adored him.

Always find it mad that theres all these bigots in our fan base apparently but they all seem to like all the other PoC in our club.

DCL made his intentions to leave us at the first opportunity very public. He drove this wedge between the fanbase and himself. Then he wasnt good enough to paper over the cracks with his performances in games.

I mean it's interesting that the guy who apparently wanted to leave us at the first opportunity didn't leave us, fulfilled his contractual obligations for the best part of his career isn't it?

Do we not sometimes think sentiment just doesn't match reality?

I always grin at ‘he scored the goals that kept us up’ but if he’d scored more of the chances he missed we wouldn’t of been in the position anyway!

I for one, feel thankful that he fulfilled his contractual obligations (because Newcastle and nobody else would match his wage demands)

It's the Doucoure Defence: give him full credit for what he did do while blinding yourself in both eyes to what he didn't.

I think Dominic had most attributes to at least compete not necessarily at the highest level within the PL,but to a decent level,unfortunately his injuries especially now will I for one feel impinge on the rest of his career,I also feel he appears on the face of it to be a really good guy but lacked the toughness/evil streak to truly “kick on”,it may be telling that the best spell of his Everton career albeit under a proper sage in Ancelotti was during covid times ,no baying Goodison or our fanatical away support offering their “critique”,I truly wish the lad well in his future career and life as I know it has been documented he has had his darkness’s amongst the brightness.

IF he goes, thank you for the goals and lack of x

Calvert Lewis RW?

Why not?
He can hold it up well and have a more natural finisher through the middle
Would prefer if we got a first choice RW but options
He'd be a handful at the back post for FBs too

The strange thing about the goid form under Carlo is we can't imagine Dom playing anywhere else now, but he has in the past.

look at Joelinton. Bought as a striker, not great there, brilliant midfielder now

…..retained list on 10th June is my guess.

I was expecting some news yesterday.

Dumping news on a Friday and running has become something of a recent tradition.

DCL made his intentions to leave us at the first opportunity very public.

So public that I missed it.

Couldn't agree more sir

 

[Rita_Poon]

Imagine how soul destroying it was spearheading a Dyche super defensive side solo. The frustration was clear in the stands, it must have been very stark setting up all week knowing what was coming. Poison-football.

For sure he should have scored more but the lies, slurs and assumptions in this thread are not a good look.
