'Star boy' - Everton pair comment on Anthony Gordon's bold new look and give squad fashion verdict

With Everton settling into the USA training camp ahead of their first pre-season friendly against Arsenal in Baltimore this weekend, the squad’s resident fashionistas Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Tom Davies have been running the rule over photographs of their team-mates’ outfits under the watchful eye of former Blues player Leon Osman.

Frank Lampard’s side are preparing to face their Premier League rivals at the M&T Bank Stadium on Saturday (midnight going into Sunday UK time) but Calvert-Lewin and Davies – both noted for their daring looks – took time out from training to take a light-hearted examination of how some of the rest of the Everton squad have been looking.

Here’s a full transcript of their thoughts:

Osman: “We know how you’re both into your fashion so we’ve got some photos for you to go through, a few familiar faces, see what you make of what they’re wearing – your fashion critique.”

Calvert-Lewin: “I see [Dele's] matched the trainers with the Everton scarf. A nice touch.”

Davies: “I really like the way he’s put the sprinklers in the background!”

Calvert-Lewin: “It’s clever that. I like it. His first step out at Goodison Park and he’s set the tone, you can’t argue with that, nice.”

Davies: “Well in, Del.”

Jordan Pickford arrives for Everton pre-season training at Finch Farm on July 9 2022 (Tony McArdle/Everton FC via Getty Images)

Calvert-Lewin: “His gloves really match his t-shirt and now his t-shirt matches his wash bag, I see what he’s done there and then the car in the back.”

Davies: “It’s Jordy Pienaar to a tee.”

Calvert-Lewin: “I see what he’s done there, he’s gone for the chessboard look hasn’t he?”

Davies: “It’s really in at the moment.”

Calvert-Lewin: “Star boy.”

Davies: “Bleached blond hair. Yeah, I love Ant, he’s just expressing himself as a young lad.”

Calvert-Lewin: “He’s just doing him isn’t he?”

Davies: “Yeah. I’ve got a lot of time for him.”

Calvert-Lewin: “Me too.”

Osman: “That’s the first one I’ve thought was alright.”

Davies: “He always looks well Al to be fair, I think he takes a lot of care over how he looks. Fair play to him.”

Calvert-Lewin: “He always smells nice as well.”

Davies: “Does he? You’re getting a bit too personal for me!”

Davies: “Oh, ho, ho!”

Calvert-Lewin: “In his whistle and flute. I’m having that though. Strong.”

Davies: “That’s the best one we’ve seen eh?’

Calvert-Lewin: “You’ll never see Ben Godfrey without a fresh trim by the way.”

Davies: “That’s true that. If you see him without a fresh trim, you’ve got to make a wish.”

Davies: “It’s Demarai. I wonder where he is there?”

Calvert-Lewin: “He’s picking erm…”

Davies: “Tiles for his bathroom!”

Calvert-Lewin: “Yeah, that’s the one.”

Davies: “Looks well though.”

Calvert-Lewin: “Nice. Demi always wears his caps like that on the top of his head as well.”

Davies: “It’s an interesting look. I don’t think I could pull that off.”

Calvert-Lewin: “I’m going to ask him why he does that.”

Davies: “Looks like we’ve seen a picture of the Rock.”

Calvert-Lewin: “A young Rock!”

Davies: “Go on Yerry.”

Calvert-Lewin: “Best guy ever.”

Davies: “Greatest guy yeah. Nice little leather jacket on.”

Calvert-Lewin: “A million dollars, he looks.”

Davies: “Smooth yeah.”

Calvert-Lewin: “Dwayne Johnson.”

Davies: “That’s me in Malibu. You know, just enjoying myself.”

Calvert-Lewin: “Just got back from 12 hours in the pub… left his tie there.”

Davies: “Oh come on.”

Davies: “Who’s that?”

Calvert-Lewin: “It’s Donatella (Versace, pictured with him during his visit to Milan Fashion Week last month) What do you reckon to my rig-out there?”

Davies: “It’s great yeah. I love the sweatshirt. Have you still got it?”

Calvert-Lewin: “Yeah. Good experience that. Enjoyed it.”

Davies: “Good curls as well. Did you have them curled specially?”

Calvert-Lewin: “Maybe.”

Davies: “Maybe not? Yeah, great picture.”

Davies: “Who’s this fella here, sneaked in at the end? Please tell me you were playing golf.”

Osman: “I was! Of course I was.”

Calvert-Lewin: “Just going the supermarket.”

Osman: “That was my testimonial charity golf day, a good few years back.”

Calvert-Lewin: “I like that yeah.”

Davies: “Whereabouts?”

Osman: “Formby Hall.”

Davies: “Very nice.”

Calvert-Lewin: “What were your thoughts behind that then?”

Osman: “I think I was just trying to pull it off really. I was just trying to stand out. I’d had them pants for a while and thought it’s time.”

Calvert-Lewin: “I admire the confidence there.”

Osman: “I think I’d took them off before I got to the first tee if I’m being honest. I had a complete outfit change before the first tee.”

Davies: “I always have to wear two pairs of pants when I play golf.”

Osman: “Two pants? Do you?”

Davies: “In case I get a hole in one!”
