2018/19 Andre Gomes

[LostLegend]

Makes you wonder how much they rate him at Barca, he played 30 La Liga for them in the 2016/17 season, and 8 champs league games, and 16 La Liga games in the 2017/18 season, plus 9 champs league games, think he was then side lined with an injury.

Fans properly turned on him though.

Do a youtube search for him.
Fans were booing him on the ball, other players had to ask the fans to cut him some slack etc.

I think his Barca career is over and they will be playing coy to get the best price they can for him.

Yeah think I read somewhere that the fans voted him in Marca their worst signing of the season.

 

[RomanReigns]

it will be interesting to see whether he wants to go back to barca and prove himself there or sign for us come end of season

i just hope that saying 'once everton has touched you nothing will be the same" applies in this instance

As I said, Brands was quoted as saying Barca originally wanted to sell him, but we only wanted a loan.
Now the media narrative is that Barca never wanted to sell.

Someone is telling fibs here, and it doesn’t take a genius to assume that Barca would claim not wanting to sell him in order to bump up his price.

Nonsense this guy is better

not a little.

way better

I think some people forget how good prime Arteta was

Not me, before that Newcastle game I wouldn’t have sold him for 50m , which was a huge fee at that time. In the end I was happy with 10m , he never came back from that injury , before it he had everything, proper box to box player

The club are putting out a crazy amount of Gomes propaganda, so we obviously are trying to tempt him with the love.

You are not kidding !

Meh, Modric was voted that during his first season in Madrid and look at him now. There's no option in the loan agreement to make it permanent so that in itself to me says they aren't desperate to get rid. Surely they'll want to give him another look if continues making the PL look a piece of cake like he has been doing?

It will probably all just depend on what the player himself wants. Hopefully all the love he's receiving from us is helping to convince him that he'll be happiest staying here permanently. If he asks to stay then I think Barca will do business. If he decides to go back though and give it another crack then you can't blame him, they're one of the two biggest clubs in the world.

So. I’ve not actually played as Everton on the new fifa yet - played a game with my brother in law today (Everton vs United) we played the new one where you lose a player if you score.

Couldn’t wait to get the sexy man on the ball and dance around the pitch. He hit the bar in the first min for me with a rasping shot.

When I finally did score it was Gomes with the assist and richarlison placing one through de geas legs. (10mins on Fifa).

I lose a player for scoring and they only go and take Andre ffs!

Gave up after that. Lost on pens.

Thanks for sharing. Any anacdotes about super mario?

Will score at Anfield, have that feeling

Were the people saying he was going to be crap because he bombed at Barcelona the same people who thought Cleverley was going to be the signing of the summer because he bombed at Man United? I bet they were.

....Brands is quoted;

“The season has just started. We are happy with Andre, but it will depend on him whether he wants to continue with us or not.”

Andre Gomes: I thought Andre Gomes was really unlucky not to be in my team of the week after his performance against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
The Portugal international is very tenacious which can sometimes overshadow the fact that he is very comfortable on the ball and can see a pass.
Against Cardiff, who are an increasingly difficult side to play against, Gomes was the only Everton player who kept hurting them. Gylfi Sigurdsson may have got the goal but it was Gomes who wore them down.

Did you know? Gomes made two tackles, two interceptions and made 57 passes in Everton's 1-0 victory over Cardiff City.

Need to do whatever it takes to keep him.

..from what Brands says, Dave, it sounds like it will be very much up to the player himself. It’s early days, lots can happen, I think everybody will have to be patient and wait to see where we are at the beginning of the summer.
