Supporters of Everton have been flocking to a Twitter post from the Toffees’ English striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin.
On Tuesday, the forward posted two photos of himself playing football for Sheffield United against Everton as a youngster (per Dominic Calvert-Lewin), which got lots of response from supporters.

The Englishman has been with the Goodison Park club for coming up to four years now after the Toffees secured his services from the Blades in August 2016 for £1.62 million (per Transfermarkt).
Since then, Calvert-Lewin has made 125 Everton appearances in which he has scored 32 goals, assisted 11 (per Transfermarkt) and clearly won the admiration of supporters.

What do we think?
As can be seen in the responses from these Everton fans, they clearly enjoyed the images of their striker and found the size of his shinpads comical.
Having been the fourth-best performer for the Toffees in the Premier League this season with an average rating of 6.94/10 (per WhoScored), it is clear to see why fans are so keen on the player.
