"The former Everton man has scored in six consecutive Premier League games, netting seven times in total. He is the first Leeds player to score in six successive matches in the top flight since John McCole in 1959-60, while he is the 11th English player to do so in the Premier League, and the first since Joe Willock netted in seven games in a row for Newcastle United in 2021."
"But Farke focused on Calvert-Lewin's lethal finishing in the aftermath of Sunday's game. "He deserves all the praise. He is in record form and long may it continue," Farke told Sky Sports. "It's his job, he should score the goals, but I would also always back him to be there. "I was not surprised by this run because, for me, he is one of the best strikers in this league and he shows this quality in more or less every game.""
Dominic Calvert-Lewin has scored in six consecutive Premier League games, totaling seven goals during that run. Leeds United have gone five matches unbeaten in the Premier League under Daniel Farke's 3-5-2 formation, earning nine points from two wins and three draws. Calvert-Lewin is the first Leeds player to score in six successive top-flight matches since 1959-60 and the 11th English player in Premier League history to achieve such a run. His latest goal featured an uninterrupted 11-player build-up. Farke praised Calvert-Lewin's finishing and described him as one of the league's best strikers. Leeds travel to face Liverpool on New Year's Day.
