Confirmed Signing André Gomes

[bicycleheader]

I just want a midfielder not named Schneiderlin or Gueye and Gomes fits that bill

I can also agree with this

 

[Goat]

Sigurdsson can drop back, Baningime is at least as good as Schneiderlin and Davies. We can easily part with McCarthy, Schneiderlin and Besic imo. Not that we will, but we could.

If Gomes didnt get injured walking up the stairs maybe.

 

[Carl O'Ancelotti]

He was very good in the Euros 2 years ago iirc. No harm in a loan deal to see if his compatriot Silva can get him back to his best form.

I assume your commenting on my comparison?

Both massively rated at their clubs and in the league.

Big moves...both flopped

Both seem mentally weak and unable to show any drive after their moves

1 is defensive, 1 is more attacking

They wont bust a gut and are not warriors for the team despite looking like they can put a boot in

Lets not exaggerate, hes gone from Hero to Zero at Barca...loan to buy with a clause yes...not just a purchase...its risky especially with his injuries

Do you not think the bullying off the fans has affected him?

The lad by all accounts was identified by Messi as someone to get rid of cos of his connection with Ronaldo and supposed comments that Ronaldo is more professional.

The fans booed him. It would sting a bit I reckon hearing the best part of 70000 fans boo you.

He needs rebuilding.

We're Everton. That's exactly what we look for in a player!

..well @Boss Silva loves opening a thread even though they look like the kiss of death.

For a young lad dealing with that must be so difficult in fact screw it that sucks for anyone of any age. Say what you want about how toxic goodison can get, if you get stuck in and try and play forwards you get clapped even if it doesn’t come off

Comparing him to Morgan Schneiderlin is a complete joke. He's so much better with the ball it's not even funny. Morgan is a pure no. 6 and cannot play any position other than that one - and not well mind you, too slow, too limited athletically. Gana can very well.

Morgan cannot play as a no. 8. No chance. He can't carry the ball, he can't hold the ball, he won't go forward with it to begin with, and Gomes can for certain. His first touch is excellent, his passing is good, he's a perfect complement offensively to Gana and Sigurdsson. The question is whether or not he can disrupt play and help out in his own zone. I think he can. He may not go to ground on the tackle, but he can overpower folks and take the ball.

He can play 6 or 8 if he’s arsed, neither if he’s not.

A few hours later...

 

[Boss Silva]

If André came on loan move, is excelent business. Mina and André after Bernard, i think that will be the last 2 coming in´s this summer

Let’s see.....
