We are Gana light in the new year right as hes at the African cup thing? Maybe Gomes might help fill the numbers as we aren't the biggest squad.
 
Too funny...

However, as others have pointed out, despite being an absolute liability in some areas, he is actually very good at others, which sometimes is forgotten. As such, it is very appropriate to have him as a bench option to do a specific job.
What's he very good at. God awful player and always was
 

….i only suggested Gomes was an option off the bench in an attacking position if we’re chasing a goal. I’ve seen him come on and look impact games doing that but he is a liability in areas of the pitch where the opposition run past him. I actually think he’s a better bench option than Davies was last season.
I think he is sometimes ok getting chucked on later on in games when the opposition is tired and there is more space

He’s not physical / doesn’t want it enough to impose himself from the start

The problem though is that we aren't a side that can cover for his obvious deficiencies. We are a side that needs all 11 giving their all, all the time.

Gomes could be useful in a situation where we owned the ball 75% of the time and he had a great DM playing behind him when the odd man break invariably occurs.

Since we're allergic to the ball, it would be a disaster with him out there now.
 

He's composed on the ball to the point he's repeatedly caught on it. He can pick a pass but barely has any assists to his name before or after the injury

He's a complete myth. People seem keen to judge him on the handful of very good games. They seem to see flashes of genuine ability and call him inconsistent when the truth is he's very consistently poor.

His numbers before the injury are very much like his numbers after it. He's always been poor

Come on, get off the fence. What do you really think ?
