# Everton fans heap praise on Calvert-Lewin

Everton fans have heaped plenty of praise on striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin.

The striker led the line for the Toffees against a tough and organised Brighton backline but still caused them plenty of problems.

The Englishman bundled the ball into the net in the second-half but had it [ruled out by VAR](https://twitter.com/premierleague/status/1216036528465633280) after he was judged to have used his arm to help the ball over the line.

After the game, these fans couldn’t contain their delight at his performance…

### READ EVERTON VERDICT

Calvert-Lewin is Carlo Ancelotti’s main striker, especially after [Cenk Tosun completed his loan move to Crystal Palace](https://www.evertonfc.com/news/1565564/tosun-joins-crystal-palace-on-loan).

The Englishman has been a nuisance for defenders all season shown by the fact that he has [already won 93 aerial duels](https://www.premierleague.com/stats/top/players/aerial_won), the sixth most in the top flight and more than teammates Yerry Mina and Michael Keane.

These fans are clearly pleased with how he is playing and I believe that he can keep getting better and better under Ancelotti because as he continues to score and get praise, his confidence will keep on growing.
