Gerard Deulofeu

[TheHumbleEgg]

Like against Swansea?

Hahaha. Ace.

Ok. Disregard all that and give him the POS gong based on that performance against an average SWANSEA side who beat us at home guided by a manager that everyone had to google to have any idea who he was yet who still managed to out-think our own.

Blinder.

No mate.

I love watching him play, he's a fans dream, but I bet we'd have got a lot more points this season had Lennon played instead of him.

Lennon has 1 goal and 0 assists in 13 games.

Deulofeu has 4 goals and 11 assists in 27 games.

Do the maths, mate.

Can't believe people are trying to pick holes in the lad, let's just enjoy him.

 

[Shibbywiggles]

And Joel. Love the big lump

That's true, proper urgency to get the ball out and hilarious trying to pick up a broken De Bruyne making out he was time wasting!

EDIT: '....just ME had to google'.

Eh? You're saying he doesn't put balls in the box early enough...

I like him. A lot. However there's a massive, MASSIVE but....

...because he's a petulant little tit at times, and the diving scenario, pfffffff, can't stand it, feigning getting gobbed again the other night...and every time he does this you may as well right off the next 3-10 minutes following because he barely takes part 'cos he's so wound up and hissy. And he desperately needs to start delivering a final ball at the right time instead of remaining SO attached to taking a final, un-needed touch. It's all very well being a super-skilled and maverick footballer. And he seems like a nice kid too...but if the stamina aspect doesn't improve, nor the petulance, nor the diving and the arm flailing then he's gonna wind up a bit-part luxury kinda player...and that'd be a shame.

I would say his assist stats he has achieved, together with games like vs Swansea where he did exactly that yet Lukaku fails to get on the end of them, prove that the lad is putting quality in the box on a regular basis.

He's so, so talented and has added elements to his game which make him, imo, the best right winger prospect in the league. I rate him that highly.

I agree with you mate, all that there, totally...but there are elements that are and do let him down badly. If there weren't mate do you honestly think he'd be at EVERTON?

Agree with you.
I feel like you're coming at me here with wild swings. I was merely pointing out that he has deficiencies, some of which you mentioned, but one of them isn't his delivery.

Just imo anyway.

Yeah, he may not always be successful with what he tries but at least he's having a go. He certainly has more talent than some of our other players and can actually deliver.

He was genuinely down in the dumps in the post-match interview too, could see it mattered to him.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

I know, one of the few to actually try and he is being criticised.

He's absolutely boss, the only player we've had for a long time who has me on the edge of my seat.

 

[Abraders]

Agree he clearly isnt fit enough for 90 minutes yet it will take a bit longer if not until next season but thought he had another 10 minutes left in the tank. We should of made one sub Lennon for Osman and effectively shut out the navas threat we also gave pellegrini the upper hand as our threat down the right disappeared & he was able to make a sub reacting to our change & increase there superiority even further

It's horrible we can all see this!

EVERTON matters to him. He must know he matters to us.

 

[Paulie]

Only problem with the lad is he is blowing out of his arse after 35 mins. He has very poor stamina, is this a training issue down to the manager?
