2020/21 Andre Gomes

[tommye]

Man like Gmblammo has barely walked the last 12months and mans are throwing him in the side for Andre.

Stupid is what stupid does

 

[PhilM]

So Gomes is the Siggy heir apparent ?

Stop the world I want to get off.

It'll come full cycle and they'll be calling for Davies in the XI before you know it.

Oh my word lol anyone even calling for Gomes to be dropped or saying he’s crap stop your alcohol intake

Loads of positives from last nights win but Gomes is a concern for me. Last week it seemed like he fitted in well with the new signings and the balance looked good. This week though he delivered a performance which he has done 9/10 in his Everton career. Lethargic, zero output and very little contribution. No matter whether you’re a fan or not of Andre Gomes, you’d be a very brave man to rely on him when you need a performance. The thing is, if sigurdsson had delivered that performance, he’d be slated. But at least having gylfi on the pitch, he gives you a chance of an assist/goal. Gomes is the type of player that needs to be a 7/8 out of ten to justify his place. He very rarely is that

 

[DaChunk]

He sometimes plays like a 50 year old Gareth Barry.

 

[Toff33Blues99]

He was Meh . Not rubbish but did nothing of note apart from losing the ball for the 2nd

 

[TX Bill]

Different having Doucoure and Allan next to you than Gylfi & Davies. Big difference.

Not seen him play that well too often to be fair

 

[TheGeeseofGoodisonRoad]

haven't read any of this thread since the match (or watched the full match itself) but his shoulder into the west brom player to help richarlison through to lay it off the james for his goal made me smile a lot

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

He was having a difficult time today in patches.

 

[Papa Shango]

If Gomes wasnt good looking he wouldnt be a fan favourite

I mean DCL is a good looking lad but you and a fair few others seem to hate him?

Sigurdsson is quite dashing too! People just hate him because he is crap.

 

[mill]

Is it Gomes' turn for vitriol tonight , seeing as the usual recipient scored a hat-trick ?

Yes.

you can deffo spot the ones who should just go to a therapist instead of taking things out on a selected player each week.

 

[Zatara]

No offence mate, but that’s a mad one, even by your standards.

They’re two completely different types of player.

It’s time to put those banana daiquiris down.

Im not sure if this is a new low for the forum but its pretty damn revolting nontheless.

Shame on you

Its like people are already writing Gbamin off. Obviously he has a long way to come after two bad injuries but im hopeful the lad can push on as he could be a good player for us.

He wouldnt suit the "creative" midfielder role but neither does Gomes - both are more possession based players however the advantage Gbamin has is he is more box to box in terms of putting in a tackle.

Maybe Gbamin will end up competing with Doucoure rather than Gomes but regardless I think thats one of 4 positions that we could realistically upgrade in:

Gomes
Mina
Coleman
Pickford

Gomes has 4 years on his deal Sigurdsson has 2 years.

I think were stuck with these 2 until someone comes in for Sigurdsson then we can shift James inside and sign a right sided player or we go for an upgrade on Sigurdsson/Gomes centrally.

I see them both as 90% crablike, linking play and 10% great through balls.

With Gomes hes been poor 5 out of 6 games. However this last 2 games weve seen him probably at 6/10 which, if thats his lower performance level now is adequate. If he can be 6/10 for 5/6 games and 8 or 9/10 in 1/6 games then thats 'ok'.

Its all about consistency, as long as theyre both hitting 6/10 most games with the odd great game thrown in then we wont be complaining too much.

I can see Ancelotti wanting a huge upgrade here and believe if we received a £20mil offer for Gomes or £15mil for Sigurdsson then they would be in a taxi.

Brace yourselves for 6/10 most weeks.

It's all about the midfield having balance , fortunately our World class manager sees this.
