I'm always a bit against throwing all our love at a player from one performance, but jeez this guy here makes me feel good. Makes me feel good about our fans, and makes me want that whole positive vibe to grow and help him flourish.

I am so tired of the huge expectations and collective moaning weighing down on the heads of guys like Barkley or Davies or even Keane or Bainesy. Let's get behind someone for once.
I think most here are ok with some sort of that, but mostly this lad behind them.
 
You can see he has a class about him. He just jogs around the pitch playing simple passes and dictating the tempo. It's what we've missed alongside Gana. I love Davies but this bloke is another level.
 
Thanks Michael, will just be a one off, got a project going on in Florida, hard enough to concentrate with all these fat trump voting gun maniacs around, need to avoid procrastination a little longer, take it easy mate

Walks! Glad to see you posting, even if it is a one off thing. You’ve been missed around these parts.
 
I think @Eggs and myself plus others said from day one that if Gomes found his Valencia form again he would transform us in the middle of the park
He is the type of player we lacked for a long time
He’s like an upgraded Barkley with a brain
He will carry the ball out , create chances , spread the ball to both wings , tackle and score a few
It’s early days yet but another 4/5 games when he’s up to speed he will hopefully show his old form
As @Eggs says he’s a rolls Royce of a footballer
 

Had a dream a ball fell to him wide open at the edge is the box, the entire crowd was cheering him to hit it and he sky'd it completely. A brief quiet, then the crowd started cheering for the man, he has a big smile. Later in the game he tried again and hit one home from outside again and he ran around kissing the badge.

I had a lot of strange dreams last night..

You had cheese before bed didn't you?
It does the same to me.
 

He can do both the simple things and switching the play. He is a more mobile version of Gareth Barry. He will allow us to control the pace better. Now we just need to make sure he gets up to speed and we could almost be a team. My only fear is if he does to well we will become reliant and Barcelona will either want him back or make his price silly money!

Pay silly money then

He's not going back to Barcelona. He doesn't want to be there and they don't want him. If, for whatever reason, he doesn't stay here permanently he's going somewhere else.

If he does well he will push to make the move permanent
Barca want shot of him , they know he will never do well there
If they ask silly money and we refuse and he refused all other offers they will have to capitulate
He’s lost 2 years of his career and he wants / needs to get it back on track
