Gerard Deulofeu

[billy bluestar]

But no one is comparing him to Kanchelskis are they?

He doesn't hit the first man every time either, a couple of crosses against West Brom and about 3 against Barnsley are testament to that alone.

Well world class potential, I'd say that was comparison. Like I've said hope I am wrong, don't think I am though.

As mentioned in my original post Billy, the word potential means nothing to me, he's already delivering on his 4m fee imo, is better than Lennon, McGeady, Naismith or any one else Martinez sees fit to put on the wing ( I haven't included Mirallas as Martinez hasn't given him a run of games for such a long time) though I think he will surpass Mirallas for goals and assists in time.

All about opinions and time will tell us if he becomes a success or just another 'could have been'

Some of the comments on here... embarrassing.

For the record, Deulofeu has single handedly been our best creative outlet all yr, has learnt to track back and continues to improve.

I thought he looked a far bigger threat than Lennon, arsenal were regularly doubling up on him and even Sanchez was getting back to help. He will expose the lesser teams in the division. He also looked better when Kev come on. If he would have scored you wouldn't have heard a peep on here. Too many our fans want to kill a players instinct and talent.

When it takes 3 opposition players to stop you, you are a threat.

 

[WarringtonBlue]

He is a good player but whenever he has had the ball the last few games he is set on by 2/3 players. Either he needs more support from Barkley (who seems to link up better than Lennon) or to stop running down blind alleys. His potential is there for all to see and he is a bit of a snide which is always welcome

Totally random Deulofeu article posted today on a popular American website:

"Gerard Deulofeu Is Kind Of A Nutcase But I Love Him All The Same"

I'd post the content of the article but there are some videos, gifs and tweets intermixed with the text so it's easier to just post the link.

He's boss. Dunno how people can't see it.

 

[deipnosophist]

Fabulous player. The sort of player that makes watching Everton more enjoyable

 

[USABlue]

he's ace. needs to cut out the diving bit though. I know everyone does it but his haven't even been remotely close to a foul, honestly surprised he hasn't been booked for simulation

You can tell from the last few pages that some posters are the type of match goers who start foaming at the mouth if we aren't 1 up inside of 10 minutes.

I suggest you all go and watch Ronaldo and Messi at 21.

When Messi was 19/20 he scored 14 goals in 26 games, and when Ronaldo was 20/21 he scored 17 in 34.

While I see your point I'm afraid you've had a shocker, goat.

 

[Azzurri]

He's obviously a massive talent and adds so much to our team at times, but he is frustrating, inconsistent and almost useless in a lot of games.

If you're expecting anything more from someone who cost £4m you're being very silly indeed.

 

[TheFinnFan]

Expecting him to score tonight

Ronaldo scored 12 in 47 games, in his 3rd season in the Premier League, at the same age, if your quote FACHTS, at least quote me the right 1s.

Geri is barely into his 2nd season.

Im not implying he will ever become as good as Ronaldo, but lets give the lad a chance.
