Gerard Deulofeu - Once a Blue, always a Blue

[Shipped]

I'd be amazed if this isn't the bargain of the season.
He's the biggest bargain since Coleman .. no wait Stones .. hang on Besic...
We're pretty good at this here aren't we?

Been keeping an eye on him since he left Brum for Norwich and has been fairly good in my opinion. Also saw him live for the U21's and he was the best player on the pitch by a fair bit. Think he was sold for 2 mil, wish we had taken a punt.

Fair enough. I only saw him in the U21s and didn't think much of him however I'm probably being unfair.

Is this finally "The End of Osman" that the people have been waiting for ?

Completely different players. One is a flying winger looking to score and create in the final third. The other is a central midfielder looking to set the tempo. Sadly because he's creative and has a good touch Osman has been asked to play outside too often.

So what do we reckon...Mirallas on one wing and Deulofeu on the other? Swoons.

 

[neonleon]

We'll probably end up watching a turtle slow (all respect to him like) Osman on one wing and McGeady on the other.

He can go missing a bit but then lots of young wingers can from time to time. Scored a good goal last night in an otherwise shoddy game.

If you had a front 3 of Rom, Ross and rerri..

Thats a forward line of pure quality and the ages 22, 21 and 21.

That is pretty crazy!!

Maybe Martinez is thinking of going 433 with Cleverely, Mcarthy and Besic as the legs of the 3 man midfield?

Great signing.. can't wait for next season

Barkley - McCarthy - Cleverley
Deulofeu - Lukaku - (INSERT WINGER HERE)*


*If Mirallas leaves

I like the sound of this. But he'd probably play Barry not Besic to get some experience in the team.

Team instructions - 3 centre mids break up play and give it to the 3 young ones up top who have permission to run around like excitable puppies.

Yea but thought he was poor before then. You're probably right. My stream wasn't exactly great, a few times I wasn't even too sure who I was looking at.

I love how 99% of the forum were wishing that Tom Cleverley would sign for anyone other than Everton but of most of the lineups i'm seeing lately, Cleverley is in their starting 11.

OR a massive mistake and the squad can't yet cope but there is pressure on the manager to phase him out when he's still a big part of the team!

I hope you're right.

......the manager will pick his best players, that's how it should be. Anyway, back on thread and the Deulofeu signing should be a lift to everybody in the club and not detrimental to any individual.

He might play that team but play a diamond in the big games. Hopefully normally we'll go 4-3-3 with Deulofeu and Mirallas on the wings however I suspect that will depend on how much Deulofeu has matured and of course whether Kev stays.
