Fans of Everton have been airing their love for a club post on Dominic Calvert-Lewin for the English striker’s birthday.
On Monday, it was the 23-year-old forward’s birthday and to celebrate, the club posted footage from a year ago when Calvert-Lewin ‘surprised a young Evertonian called Max’ (as per Everton), which set supporters gushing.

This brought a smile and a lump in my throat again. Just like the Old Lady full of Blues when Z cars goes off. We are The Peoples Club because we care. God Bless.

Is Dominic Calvert-Lewin going to be a star player under Carlo Ancelotti?Yes, he's going to be huge for us
No, he's getting a bit too overrated

Over the duration of the season, Calvert-Lewin has been the Toffees’ fourth-best performer in the Premier League with a solid 6.94/10 average rating (per WhoScored).
To earn the impressive rating, the 23-year-old Englishman has 13 goals and one assist over 27 appearances in the Premier League (per Transfermarkt), leaving fans keen on the frontman.

What do we think?
Like many Everton supporters have shown, it is great to see the old footage of Calvert-Lewin being shared again from when he spent time with a young Toffees fan.
It is also good to see that the 23-year-old forward seems to be growing some form of cult hero status with the Toffees also, after having an impressive season so far (per WhoScored).
