Ramiro Funes Mori

[Papa Shango]

And he snapped a kopites ankle

In the middle of a defensive injury crisis a couple of days before our biggest game in years.

Hes an idiot for doing that.

It would be one heck of a profit after just one year at the club!

Does make me weep thinking how much we'd have eventually sold VVD for though

Sadly Southampton are the ones who will raid that veritable goldmine when the time is right

never gotten over that pal have you?

 

[Papa Shango]

Why do people want to sell him? He's the only winner we've got in the squad.

Barry.

Have a look at the Everton musings article on mori & how in his first few games the author identified a number of problems in his game particularly his inability to hold the line & how often he gets caught 2 yards behind the rest of the defence. Coaching would quickly eradicate this as its not ability driven it's corrected by drills & hard work Everton musings even says somebody with a foghorn should stand in line with the defence in training & every time he drops shout at him to get level. Imagine simeone was coaching him.

Anyway these errors in his game still exist to this day particularly the West Ham home game when he was caught deeper too often this costing us goals.

A new manager will sort the defence out very very quickly you will see. They will also coach mori about being more
Dominant aerially from a standing start he fantastic at attacking the ball aerially but is too easily beaten from a static postion & whilst I'm at it he also seems to have a flaw in his game when trying to hook clearances away over his shoulder misses the ball to often.

That sounds like I don't rate him I actually think he is a great player &
City away in the semi he was top class.

Can't wait to see him once a good coach gets him

I dont think fixing our defence will be that easy unless sweeping changes are made. Still at least Mori hasnt got a history of crumbling when needed most by us. Not yet anyway...

I dont think he is a bad player either by the way. I think its a problem we have (and all clubs have I suppose) when rating a player. They are either brilliant or crap with no middle ground.

Can't wait for next year when you're all crying for him to stay in the January transfer window.

We'd have lost anyway. Both games. At least he snapped someone.

I think he is a lot better than some people think. Him and Stones under a manager who can organise a defence could be one of the best pairings in the league. I'm excited to see what he can do next season. Has everything in his game, just needs the right structure to play in.

Main reason why Sevilla won if you ask me.

Our Argentine dreamboat.

First bit of bottle against them from an Everton player I've seen in a while.

Can't believe we signed this guy over Van Dijk, cheers Bob

 

[blueblue]

Lazy journalism as usual.
I do think he will be a very good centre half next season. He was more or less thrown in at the deep end this season and did very well.
Next season, in a team that hopefully knows how to defend , he can be even better.

We were never in for van dyk

Thankfully.

 

[carolinablue232]

He's our only ariel threat on set pieces. He's at the perfect age. He's an Argentina international. He's one of our better actual defenders. Why would anyone want rid? Never leave Ramiro.

fantastic player when the ball is in front of us, very very average when teams get behind us, price we payed was fair, good squad addition in my view.
