Gerard Deulofeu - Once a Blue, always a Blue

Think he should be brought on the last 15-20 mins against tiring opposition to make a difference. Second half he lost the ball far too much, people have compared him to Barkley trying too much, but when Barkley loses the ball he busts a gut to get it back, Gerard does not.

That's because he's a young Spanish lad and the reason why he's on loan here.

People need to remember that Everton is a tool for his development. Barcelona have sent him to us to get stronger, faster, play more minutes against strong opposition and to make the mistakes he made last night.

everyone was losing the ball that was the problem, he lost the ball a few time whilst trying to make things happen the others were losing the ball with simple passes. don't forget it was lakaku who lost the ball for their first.
 
Just looked like he was playing on his own, dont think he realised he had team mates at times.

The correct decision making, and we would have won, easily.
 

Just gonna be a learning curve for him this season, and cup game's asside should just be featuring from the bench IMO. Hopefully if everything goes to well and to plan he may be here next season too, and that is when he could have a major impact.
 
He was excellent first half, but like the rest of the team his performance in the second was average. Hard to blame him really, he never received the same kind of service in the second half, our passes seemed to be rushed and overhit.
 

Greedy little sh1t last night

All well and good turning your man and getting in the box but if you then hold onto the ball to long or shot from daft angles instead of squaring it to a man in the box it is pointless

I can understand a little bit better now why he has not started a league game
 
18yr old player in needs to make better decisions shocker.

He's young full of tricks he just needs to learn when to release it is all. Oh he's 18 ffs give the kid a break.

So what if he's 18

At 18 and having played for a club like Barca I would aspect him to have a simple grasp on the fact he needs to pass the ball rather than shot or take a man on every single time he's got the ball
