Everton Must Make Difficult Decision on Underperforming Forward

As Everton prepare to move to their new Bramley Moore stadium, manager David Moyes faces some tough personnel decisions. With only two home games remaining at Goodison Park, Moyes will need to evaluate which players should be part of the club’s future.

One player whose time at Everton may be coming to an end is striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin. Once considered one of the Premier League’s most dangerous forwards, Calvert-Lewin has struggled with injuries and poor form in recent seasons. His goal production has declined significantly, scoring just 12 goals across the past three Premier League campaigns.

While Calvert-Lewin has provided many memorable moments for Everton fans, his hefty wages and declining output suggest it may be time to part ways. Moyes has shown in the past he’s willing to make difficult decisions for the good of the team, as he did previously with striker James Beattie.

With promising young forward Beto impressing since Moyes’ return and transfer funds likely available this summer, moving on from Calvert-Lewin could free up resources to strengthen the squad. Though it would mark the end of an era, allowing the striker to leave may ultimately be the right decision as Everton look to start a new chapter at Bramley Moore.

Moyes will need to carefully weigh sentimentality against the club’s future needs. But as he’s proven before, the manager isn’t afraid to make tough choices in pursuit of success. How he handles the Calvert-Lewin situation could set the tone for Everton’s ambitious new era.
