2017/18 Gylfi Sigurdsson

[VentureBrosEFC]

Rooney is going to hurt his progress here as well as Klassen's. Koeman should have thought twice about bringing all these central players if he doesn't have a plan for them.

I think his plan is to have Klaassen, Sigurdsson, and Rooney interchange behind our shiny new striker ...


Werner. You didn't hear it from me though

But then we have no width, and don't say the full backs because they're useless

 

[everton2004]

If you look back ive never rated him, certainly not in th 45mill class. As for a once in a lifetime strike .... Well he may do that again in 2057, i look forward to watching it from beyond the grave.
If anyone seriously thinks he's an improvement on Barkley then please start watching another sport.
Anyway I'm on my hols in Spain so to all who disagree with me , de nada

But he is.

Class is permanent lad

In yer head.

I don't think he likes width. He played Mane left and Tadic right at Southampton didn't he?

I've heard BMD is only going to be 55 yards wide.

But he is.

Ok but what if Barkley uses both feet

I think most sane humans KNOW he's an improvement over Barkley.

You appear to have missed the part where he's had practically zilch of a pre-season, is probably only 65% match fit at best and is trying to adjust rather too quickly to a new team.

This two week break will do him the world of good all fronts.

As i said. His main attribute is taking set pieces, he is the Icelandic Jonny Wilkinson, how match fit does he need to be to miss the 1st man ? Anyway. De nada
On my jollies

Pfft sniggers

.

Only when he hadn't fallen out with them.

After reading some of the posts in here, I swear some of you have never seen Barkley play. I love this running with ball, attacking player that is super direct and goes at defenses. That's surely not Barkley. That's EXACTLY what Ronnie wants him to do, but he apparently doesn't.

Sigurdsson is going to take both time to get fit AND gel with his teammates. But he was FAR from the problem.

Quite right. Ross is capable of dribbling runs but mostly chooses a short back pass. Infuriating.

I think this lad can provide a lot of quality ball for the attacking players to take advantage of, we need to sign a striker over any other position before the window shuts.

Yeah, the two times today he hit the first man is more reflective of his set piece abilities than the last 4 years in the same league. Harry Kane hasn't scored yet, he must suck at scoring.

Frankly, if we had a legit target guy and a CB, we would've scored on one of his last free kicks because they were spot on.

He was mediocre today and provided several today alone.
