I think it was Paul (maybe Neil) who posted the other day that Calvert-Lewin has three goals from something like 3.2 xG. The ‘easy’ headers he missed against Palace had low xG, for example; every miss is getting magnified.
He’s working hard, winning the ball, holding it up well, stretching the defence…he’s just not scoring. But I don’t think many would in his position - we just don’t create many real chances for the lone forward.
And put it this way; he’s a fucking lot better than Beto.
As the goals against column is very strong.
And there's far greater areas of concern that need fixing in summer.
What do you do with a problem like Dominic?
I cant imagine us having him forever, but if we can keep
Pickford, Tarkowski and Branthwaite - then thats a very solid base.
Myko is fine too, rb, I aint sure on tbh
I suspect we'll have to sell someone though, and if clubs know that, then we wont get mega money for anyone.
