2017/18 Davy Klaassen

[tim cahill]

Some of the shouts about this fella so far this summer have finally confirmed to me that Evertonians are longer among the most knowledgeable of football fans.

3 games in and he's [Poor language removed]...he's played the Ajax way all this life,Joins us and is considered [Poor language removed] on the back of 3 friendlies without being giving a chance to adjust to a new country and team and new league.

Even tho people conveniently forget his contribution in our Europa games.

Cruyff said in 2014: “You must have strong positioning, ability to control the ball at speed and also have the technique to deal with the speed of it [in midfield].

"Xavi, Toni Kroos and Davy Klaassen can do it. All three have perfect anticipation and they can play it both left and right excellently.

"You watch, when Klaassen plays from that position for Ajax, the tempo increases immediately. Moreover, he rarely loses possession."

good enough for him,good enough for me in my extremely humble opinion.

Agreed. Although I wouldn't say he's kept possession well for us so far. He does seem to have great vision and awareness and his attitude is spot on but he needs to take his time with it a bit more at times.

[Number_25]

Hmm.

 

[sageyefc]

Way off pace

 

[Osamabindiesel]

He started off the game well and tailed off when the other players did. He was much better than Rooney and Sigurdson who have been poor.

 

[Maltese_Falcon]

Messi would also look lost with these tactics, or should I say lack of them.

 

[Telford-Feb-85]

not his fault

 

[johnjoeefc]

We are actually significantly worse than last season

 

[iamEverton]

another terrible signing by Ronald Conman.

 

[Mogwai]

I honestly didn't realise he was on the pitch till 35mins in lol

 

[ToffeeTim]

Really thought this kid would do the business. Bitterly disappointed so far. So lightweight, even gutless tbh. No fight whatsoever.

 

[CRIMHEAD]

Did you guys even watch the game? He was excellent. Rarely made a bad touch, got into dangerous positions, tracked back, etc. He was hardly the problem. His first touch is excellent.

 

[Abraders]

He's genuinely the most anonymous and pointless player ever.

Totally crap, makes one touch per 10 mins and is too 'clever(ly)' for our players lollollol

 

[Walken]

20 mill for naismith

 

[Abraders]

20 mill for naismith

Don't be harsh, Naismith was far better

Edit; he actually never should have been sold and was more of a Koeman player than Klaassen (who according to the dutch is meant to be McCarthy MK2)
