So what is it about?

I mean all im seeing is a desire to sell our best player, cos you think he wont get us top 4?

How does selling our best player help us get top 4?

Zat’s idea is simple. Sign all the top young players in the world. The ones that only Everton know about like.
 
Not good enough to start If we want top 4.

Forget he’s playing until every 7/8 weeks when he puts on in the top corner.

I just want us to get a number 10 who has some actual craft and see things others can’t
 
Think with better players around him and an actual system and style of play we may well see the quality he has.

Good player, but nothing special. But there’s nothing wrong with that. I think too many people now think in a far too binary manner- a player is seemingly either total garbage or has to be completely world class. It’s just ludicrous. Lets be honest here have we actually had any “world class” players in two decades? He gets flak for his price tag and his stats are overinflated by set pieces, but he’s still a decent option.

Shouldn’t be sold and will be a solid part of the squad and first XI next season. He didn’t show enough last year and could he be improved upon? Most probably. Is that really a priority when you look at the rest of the squad? Not a chance. He’s good enough for next season. Reasses after that. It’s not like we can sell him and get our money back anyway.

This top 4 stuff is nonsense. We aren’t competing for the top 4 anytime soon. Not even close.
 

Creative players are there to create. He doesn't.
Except by every objective measure he does. Usually those that don’t like Sigurdsson can only give subject options or misrepresent facts. He’s class.

There are posters today that claim that Sigurdsson created nothing in his match with Argentina!

My question is, when we start playing more attacking soccer, when he gets to take penalties, and scores 8-9 goals next year with the same number of assists, runs his tail off, are the same posters going to trash him just because they think they are clever?

Best player lol

Also, Liverpool have just got top 4, with only 2 special players, the other 9 are utter rubbish, you dont need 11 special players to get top 4, you only need 1 or 2.

Do you believe that we should have 9 or 10 non-special players earning £150k a week + able to be replaced with better if a transfer fee comes in around what we paid last year is logical?

Not at all...looking at it as a one off question;

Is a 29 (in Sept) year old player on £150k a week in a key position going to be worth more to the club in the team or as a sale if close to £45mil comes in...

Hes never worth that amount. Hes never Maradona to single handedly get us top 4 and furthermore lets see how many offers we receive for him this summer...

Yes, because not only do we have so many donkeys but 'some' are suggesting we cant do better than Sigurdsson.

Its a mid-long term plan to get there and hes not here past 3 seasons...

Imagine Marco Silva and Marcel Brands watching that game yesterday, I bet they werent thinking "I cant wait to sell him".

Well Brands has been doing that for years so youve finally made a logical point.
 

People keep making it seem like £45 mil in today's market is a lot of money...especially when you consider that it was essentially a relegation concession....it really isn't.

Imagine if he wasnt our player and we were linked to him, after yesterdays game everybody, bar Zat, would be frothing over him.

People cant get his transfer fee out of their head, sadly, shame.

Rom was beaten to death with his fee. Then when it looked like he was leaving the same folks pinned a massive price tag on him. It's so weird to me.
 
If he isnt our best player, who is?

Thats the point...hes not top notch and no one is...yet hes on monster money...short term signing if ever there was one...koeman special.

Everyone knows him already Goat...

Now you have a chance to see Lozano...enjoy the moment.
