2017/18 Gylfi Sigurdsson

[Big_nev]

He did nothing from open play

For £45mill you don't expect to then buy another load of players to make him better.

Agree by the way. Just pointing out the utter stupidity of not buying a striker. What exactly was the plan?

Still doesn't matter. He doesn't influence a game.

Utter scandalous we agreed that fee

Oh we got utterly robbed. Just not sure who exactly Gylfi is meant to be putting crosses in for or threading in. All feels like we just lashed a big fee around the look like big spenders.

So you're telling me we spend £45m on a player but then need to spend another £25-£30m on a big striker so he can perform? That seems very silly.

 

[Pabbers]

He is not even half the player Ross is.

 

[diggerdestroyer]

Yep. He isnt as good as ross. And then his manager player him out wide. Insanity.

 

[Efcjake]

Just not doing it at all. Completely ineffective so far in his Everton career. Knew he was a set piece merchant but the rest of his game has been poor and the lack of preseason fitness excuse has expired.

THAT ONE GOAL.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

He's been a joke today. Our record signing by some distance and all he's done so far is make up the numbers. Grim.

 

[Safc-mark-91]

Wondering if he just can't cut it in a team he isn't the best player, like he was at Swansea.

Everything went through at him at Swansea but he isn't dictating the game for you at all. He did the same when he signed for Spurs. Couldn't fit into their team and re-signed for Swansea, who basically built the team around him.

Some players just got into a certain style of play and when they're not the 'main man' in a new team they look lost. I'm just wondering if Everton is too big a step-up? He also shines when playing for Iceland, as he's by far their best player with no real competition.

I must admit, I was convinced he'd be a key player for you after his ridiculous amount of assists in a pretty poor Swansea side. He controlled the tempo, he was bossing the game and looked a threat every time he got within 30 yards of the goal.

45m - He's done nothing to justify that yet.

Still time to turn it around but for all that cash you'd expect genuine quality and for him to he settled in before now.

From an outsider he looks like he isn't sure where to play, or what his role is in the team? Not sure if that's Koeman's fault or his.

 

[ianefc]

He is garbage.

 

[paulbefc]

He is not even half the player Ross is.

And that's saying something.

He's been genuinely awful.

 

[Rollo Tomassi]

Useless simply utterly useless

 

[nsno-chris]

Hide behind your rock as per usual. I hope your first out the door in January

Another anonymous display for the “creative kingpin”

Swansea is your destiny Deadball Gylfi

Looks lost.
