I replied to someone who said he was a good passer. Obviously we see the defensive midfield role different, to me it’s the player who sits in front of the 2 cb’s
IE. Schneiderlin or Carvalho, Fernandinho for city. Gana doesn’t play that role. But if he’s so good at it, why did we buy Schneiderlin?
Like you said he suits the high press, so to me that says box to box. And he’s not good enough for that role if we are serious about challenging the top 4 in the near future.
I’m also not convinced he’s a silva type player, who wants players to dominate possession. To me gana is a problem fir us moving forward. Not good enough technically to sit in front of the 2 cb’s and dictate the play. And offers nothing from an attacking point of view to play the box to box role. You need to do a lot more than press the opposition and win the ball back.
Just look at Liverpool I know at the moment they are ahead of us. There midfield is better than ours. And Klopp is spending 100mil on replacements because he wants better. Well so should we.
Luckily fir me as I’m not s fan. Gana is 29 and probably has 2yrs left at Everton if he’s lucky.
