2020/21 Andre Gomes

Far too slow for this league and we should be offloading

Please just sell him now before Nuno comes in and makes him captain.

Or trade him to Wolves in exchange for Traore lol

He’ll have an integral part to play in Nuno’s new look Everton midfield.

I was watcking the Kominsky Method last weekend and the waiter in it definitely reminds me of the light and graceful movement style of Andre.

I wouldn't be itching to get rid of him just yet. Maybe he hasn't panned out to the degree we all wanted, but I still think he could be a useful player in some managers' systems. It really just depends on who the next manager is for me.

What system could he be useful in? Name a standout attribute he has.

Use him as a sweetener on a deal for Tchouameni and I’d be a happy man

Objectively he is genuinely both footed. He is by and large crap with both those feet unfortunately.

Slowness

I genuinely miss Mike Milligan watching this fella

I'm thinking back to pre-injury especially (though there have been a few flashes here and there since). When he was playing at his best, he was the best of our midfielders at keeping the ball in a crowd. When he would use his size / strength, sometimes other players would just sort of bounce off him. And then he was really our best midfielder pre-James at making a proper long-distance, cross-field or up-field pass.

Granted, what I'm saying would require him to recapture that best form and then mostly keep it going, but if he could, that ball-keeping, long-distance passing could definitely be useful in a midfield where other players are doing more of the running / tackling. That's why he's always looked his best in a 3-man midfield for us, I think.
