2019/20 Gylfi Sigurdsson

[WeAreEvertonians]

Thanks. He isnt a striker.

Agreed, 13 goals from a midfielder is excellent.

 

[nsno-chris]

Wasn't he our most creative player last season? with over 45+ chances created?

Ricky???

Ricky???

Not sure what this means, but I'm pretty certain he created chances last season and even today when he was crap he created a great chance for richarlison and could've had 2

Got up to speed to late in the game need to be ready from min 1

He is not a playmaker
We are bereft

Will at least offer something different to gylfi, iwobi can dribble and drive forward with the ball, can also move at a faster pace than a glacier.

Gylfi got competition for the first time now, he either finds consistency in his play or loses his spot

Same as last year, I think it's more a case of everyone else slowing down to his pace sadly

Yes but i cant believe we signed Iwobi as an alternative to Gylfi.He is more a wide man and i dont think he has the touch or technique to be a playmaker

 

[D410]

It might interesting to switch his role with Bernard in games when we hit a wall of lack of creativity.

This is basically what I'm saying. He isn't a striker obviously but what he brings is striker like at times in that he often offers little playmaking or link up play.

It works as long as the wings and fullbacks pick up the slack. When they don't like today we can be toothless.

He's a fine player and I'm a big fan but I'm not sure he fits how Silva wants to play. Obviously he had a stinker today, even though he still brought us as close as anyone to getting a goal, and I'm pretty sure Silva still believes in a 4-3-3 which doesn't suit Siggy so the problem is he's too good generally to leave out and we've got a 'square-pegs, round-holes' situation.

I hate him, hes so stiff on the turn and one dimensional, suppose to be a top slotter but always misses chances.
