Luke Garbutt

So you think DCL is ok?

It depends.

Replacing him for now is clearly a priority, as striker is probably the most important position. But he’s athletic, good in the air and hard working. His goalscoring, which unfortunately is the most important thing, obviously could be better.

Is he “ok” for a title chasing side? Obviously not. Is he one of our worst players? Not at all.
 
If you include Unsworth ( bear in mind he's been part of his U23's ), four managers have deemed him not good enough to be anywhere near the first team.

There has to be a reason for this and it can only be be he's not good enough.
who are the 4? he was not registered in the squad so couldnt be picked by unsworth or Big sam
 
I've just looked Garbutt couldn't play for the first team until January, so we will never know if he would have played under Unsworth or Sam up to now. So he may or may no be good enough, but he couldn't play anyway, We can go by Koemans judgement either because look at the mess he left us in.
 

We're all aware that Koeman never registered him, however from what I can gather he could now be registered and it wouldn't appear that he isn't going to be.

Some young players just plateau mate, despite apparently being world beaters as teens.

i think it might depend on if we manage to get another in.

I actually thinks he's a tidy player which actually makes him look better than he is, but as a striker he is very average imo no better than a championship striker. I'd actually like us to get another striker in and loan him out to work on his game more, but I'm not sure he will make it here. But may be wrong I just dont really rate him god enough for us.
 
I keep asking myself where Luke Garbutt is, the longer I have to sit and pay to watch Cuco attempt to defend.

The amount of rumours that have surrounded the fact he’s not playing instead of Martina is tiring.

Where is he and why isn’t he training with the first team :oops:
 

The lad should just retire if he can't even get a squad number at a club where one of the worst right-backs in the division is playing left-back.

Never, ever having a left-footed player in the team is leaving Everton horribly unbalanced every week.
I'd like to see a busy wee no 10 in there. Like Silva or John Collins or whatever. Spraying it about with the left foot.

What do the rules say mate?

How come Cenk can be brought in and play immediately and not have to wait until the new squad is picked at the end of January, but Garbutt can't?

Garbutt could be played if registered now. If he is registered now though, that would take up a squad place and any incoming players may not have a place. Fingers crossed that means we are actually planning to sign a LB.
