Not sure I agree, they changed his position because he was a striker that didn't score. Think he has 20 goals in 190 appearances and I would be surprised if he had more than 15 assists. A poor mans Jordan Henderson or James Milner.He would be our best midfielder by if we had him
I agree about Keane. I think there’s another world where he was a holding midfielder who was able to stride forward and use his finishing ability arriving late into the box though, whilst not having to constantly worry about pacey strikers running into the space behind him.I don't think Joelinton moving to CM is as drastic as it seems. In Germany he often played as an attacking mid or wing, even some at CM. Certainly quite a bit at striker as well.
He came to England and was put at striker, most assumed because of his size that's where he would make his mark. But he had already played quite a bit all over the pitch.
I think typically a center midfielder will have certain abilities that will allow him to play in multiple roles. That's where you most see it.
Another is a winger becoming a full back (Ashley Young one of the best examples).
As far as the current squad goes, I could see Mykolenko as a LCB in a back three, not a back four. McNeil is a pretty awful defender despite his reputation, his defensive work is based on effort not awareness. And while Keane is quite deadly in the 18, he's long strided and slow, if he was at striker the ball would very rarely progress up the pitch.
Why is this thread in the Everton forum? If he was linked to Everton at £40 million heads would be wobbling everywhere. Dust.
No thanks you nobody.Read the opening post first you doughnut.

Ah yeah, good one. There can’t be many players who’ve gone from full back to being a centre forward who regularly got into double fingers in the prem. The closest I can get with us is Steve Watson once scoring a hat trick up top!Mikael antonio comes to mind as a great example of this. Wasnt he a left back for long spells?
