2023/24 Andre Gomes

[RufusCat]

How can he improve with the ball going over his head all the time anything he picks up is scraps. We don’t play in midfield. Our tactic is hoof it into the box and see what happens. Percentage rubbish.

I am obviously watching a different game, at least most not the time.

There are strikers in the squad right now who are worse than Niasse.

There aren't

 

[GoldenToffee]

Thank God he's off soon. One of the biggest wage thieves ever! Gomes and Alli, there needs to be a party once they're gone.

 

[DualityNSNO]

I mean it was, it was a level above him.

And he was the easiest scapegoat there too - they expected any midfielder to come in and replace/be the new Xavi, which was way above his level. Hindsight is 20/20 and all that but he probably should've stuck with Valencia for a season more.

He costs us 10.5 mill a year mate.

There definitely aren't.

There definitely aren't.

There really isn't much of a difference ability wise between Niasse and Beto for me. Both ungainly players who struggle to do the basics yet also have traits that make them effective at times.

Worth noting that I rated Niasse more than most though (not saying I rated him, just more than most people did, I never saw him as a "competition winner" for example).

He was 30 when he left us and hasn't played above League One level since. Tearing it up in the Northern Premier League this season though

Some rose tinted glasses in here, he was absolutely plop even before his broken leg.

The fact is that he can either look like he is god that glides across the pitch or like Sunday pub league player in any given apearance.

He's been released. Bring a blue home...

He moved to Huddersfield and got a pretty bad injury to be fair.

He has given me the only slither of joy watching Everton for the past 8 years or so when he made his return against Bournemouth but that probably says more about us than it does about him.

 

[Goat]

When people praised Niasse I knew that the Everton I once knew was dead.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

It says something when he is probably our only ball playing midfielder.

The club would probably spend so much on the party that it would take us over the FFP threshold and have to sell Branthwaithe to balance the books

there is so much truth to this

but how can you not like a limited footballer who plays with 2 hearts and 2 lungs?
