Gerard Deulofeu - Once a Blue, always a Blue

[neil999]

In January he claimed we were back in for Odjidja-Ofoe, and then claimed Hitzlsperger would be moved on if he came in - all of which was complete fabricated nonsense. There's plenty of other examples too but that should be enough.

Yet people brush over things like this because he's very good at deflecting it - and like all cold readers on Twitter if he manages a hit he lets everyone know about it.

Don't get me wrong, he's very affable and all the rest of it, but he's not ITK - he's just good at scouting for sources and presenting them as quickly as possible as his own when news does break.

There is not one genuine ITK on Twitter regarding Everton. But if you want a quick Everton news source, then by all means he's your guy, but I'd just prefer people to be clear on what these people are.

DAVIDMOYES is the only clear itk with definite info i have ever seen

That Spain - USA U-20 reel looked like FIFA on Amateur with tactics set to Long Ball.

He could have the first touch of a cannonball, but he looks to be speedy and fit.

This has taken you ages and I'm not even gonna read it.

Yep. He's the only one of late.

Back on topic, still can't remember seeing this lad in action before but there's a definite feeling of excitement about him from Barca fans and people who have seen him, so I'd be excited to see him.

I'd accept no buyout fee in the loan with him, but we should have one inserted for Victor Moses IMO.

Seems like he would relish a Martinez style system

Looks rough arounds the edges, but scored a cracking goal

Haven't posted before in any of the threads but have been reading up on this rumour a lot as I live over here and go to a lot of Barca games and some Barca B games.

I like Delofeu but it's very early for him and you can't really make any set judgements. He has bags of ability and confidence, but sometimes is overconfident and wants to take on the whole defence when he should be laying it off. Normal I guess for a lot of young attacking players, and at the very least he would be an interesting option off the bench if he can settle ok.

There is still stories about Valencia, Betis and Sevilla being interested and I feel he is most likely to stay in Spain. I think Valencia wanted to take him in December but Barca were not interested. However he has since told Tito he wants to go elsewhere for this season. I can't post any links just yet.

I would absolutely love it if Martinez managed to build a good relationship with Barca. My catalan friends watch some Everton games now as it is, if we get Delofeu in they will be watching a lot more.

Nice one mate. It's good to get an opinion from someone who watches him regularly.

I wonder if we could get Derren Brown to do a show on how football ITKS go about their cold reading just like he did on the Psychics. He could follow Fourth Official around for a couple of weeks and then at the end they could both put predictions up and see if there is any credibility in the world of Football twitter ITKS

Disclaimer - I have no idea whether Fourth official is in the know or not and pickedhim at random.

Well in mate and thanks for the most accurate assessment yet.
