To be honest with you i did say both were possibilities. My only answer is I prefer to see the good in a player rather than the bad. I'm quite happy for others to differ,

To repeat the oft repeated mantra, he is far fom being the biggest problem we have got. I can think of some who I don't want to see in an Everton shirt again.

Who’s your top 3?
I still have no idea what to think of him. He was absolutely boss in the first X matches after injury, he looks completely lost currently. I'm absolutely lost as to which one is the "real" Gomes.
all of them
Remember when we didn't like him being off the first page because of how boss he was?
Now being on the first page shows how crap you are.

I think he's one of our biggest problems to be honest. There are many, many worse players in the squad than him don't get me wrong, but his inability to dictate a game in the way he was early in the season is a huge problem for us. Our style of play (such as it is) relies on having someone in the middle of the pitch getting on the ball and bossing it, and he's fallen way short of that in recent months.
He’s got all the ability just doesn’t seem to be using it or being utilised properly.

He played no pre season for Barca come straight to us injured and we've played him every game even through that terrible Christmas period, He's probably knackered.
Yeah he probably is, but the point was that he's been a big part of the problem for us, not what might be causing that.
I don't think he is a problem at all. If we had the forward players making intelligent runs or even dropping off to collect rather than sticking with the man who is marking him then you would see more opportunities to dictate the ball and set up. Our forwards are our problem at the moment along with set pieces
He was the second coming when he first entered the scene 'rolls royce' of a player. Looked to be the next Arteta but unfortunately complacency has crept in across the whole team him included.
Hopefully the rest will have done him good and he stops giving the ball away so cheaply. Far from the biggest problem though but rocket up the arse needed.

He'd work best in a 3. Sits too deep to be the main playmaking/attacking threat but isn't strong enough defensively to rely on him in a defensive role.

All that's happened is that his quality has been quickly recognised by other managers and they have acted accordingly in making sure he's continually pressed in the middle of the park. That's why he goes deeper and deeper as a game progresses, to escape the intensity and speed of play in the middle of the park.

Barca needing to sell players to generate funds for the summer, sounds like there is a good chance we can sign Gomes if we want him. Still not quite convinced 100%
