Gomes has the problem of carrying many Evertonians expectations on his back. I have to agree with BLF that he is by far our best midfielder even when not totally at the races. We know what he can do so we expect it every week. If he dips slightly, albeit still playing better than the other midfielders, he is the one that carries the failure in some Evertonians minds. We cannot rely on just one or 2 players as we have for many a year.....our problem is that we do not have even half a team of good enough players so the pressure falls on the likes of Gomes etc. We all have to blame someone but let us not blame the better players let us look at the turd players.
