True, but he was also our best player at Anfield when Pickford had a mental breakdown to concede at the death though

What energy he had was eliminated by the Son injury. After that, whether physical or mental, he became completely useless

In a side like we have today, we cannot carry a passenger in midfield. We're going to need all the graft we can get. He'd be semi useful in a Ligue 1 side where they have all the possession. Like where he was last year
IMO part of the problem was losing Gana in full Energizer Bunny mode next to him. He has always needed midfield partners who cover for his defensive liabilities. We have a small sample size pre-injury in 2019-2020, and a large sample size thereafter.

It's unfortunate that it didn't work out, but that's part of football. We did our due diligence, and I don't bear him or anyone else (other than Son) involved any ill will for how it ended.

Absolutely. It’s a shame how it happened and I’m kind of sad it had to be Andre. Even if he was never a great tackler he always worked hard on the defensive side pre-injury. As Dave put it he was our “Gentleman snide” and always held it up well and switched the field well on the offensive side. He needs to move on now for his own sake and get regular footy in a less pressured environment. This league is nuts.
 
Has confidence issues and can't cope mentally with pressure.

Was outstanding at Valencia. Went to Barca at 23 to be back up for Rakitic. Had an absolute stinker and was booed by his own fans. He never came back from that.

Came here and looked like his Valencia days. Snapped his ankle and he was done.

Read he did well in France on loan. Couple of MOTMs and bagged twice against PSG.

But cos it's Everton and the stupid £100k a week contract he's on...no one's paying him that.

Forgot we had him, at this point Onyango is more likely to start over him he's washed and done sell immediately.

Great on loan for 60% of the season then dropped off so much i said i wasnt sure it was a good idea to sign him.

Was a 1 in 10 player after signing.

Hopefully off to Saudi to give Onyango a chance alongside Gana on the bench.

He.was.rubbish.before.the.injury.

Aston Villa away that season was a prime example - absolutely diabolical performance.
Remember that, remember him ballooning a pass well out and into the top of the stand

Remember his performance away at Southampton in Lampards first few months, Clement had to grab him after a few mins and tell him what to do, he was all over the place.

Then there's the Palace first half, scared to put in a tackle and get involved.

For a while there in about 2021, Gomes and Tom Davies played like a couple of local Dads being given a few minutes at the end of a friendly against Sparta prague in early August cos they did a massive bike ride around Europe to raise money for a local hospice.
