I’ve supported Everton all my life and I’ve never witness a proper Brazilian playmaker playing for us. That’s 35 years. We can go back another 35 years and I’d struggle to recall anyone Brazilian ever.

I would say unprecedented historic game changer.

Rodrigo looked promising in the two games he played for us.

Now we have two.

Lets go full full Boro and start wearing the Brazilian kit and wave flags.

Samba me up Davey.
 

I don’t see Chelsea being an issue. Bernard will want to get back into the Brazil team, he’ll want to showcase himself. He won’t do that sat on the bench at Chelsea behind Hazard Willian and Pedro. I bet a lot of our sales pitch to him was around him getting anrun of games in whatever position he wanted (perhaps number 10) and being the creative hub of the whole team taking set pieces and running all the play. Chelsea don’t have CL either this time and we can probably pay him the same.
 
Because he's spent nearly half of his footballing carear playing as a left winger, and pretty much all of his Everton career playing as a left winger.
Keane has spent his everton career at CB doesnt make him a footballer! I wouldnt say we have numerous left sided attackers as each have and will continue to be played where ever they are most effective on the pitch. It gives us opportunity to change it up and move players about, brave attacking tactical changes mid-match might be something we just have to get used to! If Bernie comes id imagine the intention would be to have him playing as the creative midfield position but be able to have the option to switch it up in attack without making subs.
 


He clearly is a left winger, as he's spent half of his career playing there. He's pretty poor both on the left and centrally tbh, and unless there is a drastic improvement in his performances then I think Sigurdsson's days at Everton are numbered.
What position has he played the other half?
 
Which doesn`t bode well for the Siggyfraud lol

The only way, with our squad atm, to play them both is a 4-1-4-1 type system with Gueye as the pivot between attack and defence but he can't pass a ball so that's a bit weird.

And then Silva has already admitted to wanting to play a 4-3-3 so unless Sigurdsson is willing to play CM, so long invisible man.
