2017/18 Davy Klaassen

[Gladystweet]

As a Dutchman and Ajax-supporter, my opinion is that Davy isn't brilliant and that actually very few Ajax-fans think he is brilliant. He is just a humble, hardworking and rather intelligent lad whose main strengths are his mentality, stamina, his runs inside the box and his finishing abilities. His leadership is often quoted, but keep in mind that this concerns his situation at Ajax with mostly guys who are below 22 years of age. I don't expect him to boss Rooney around anytime soon.

Davy always has had a lot of critics, even at Ajax. Yes, he often manages to put his name on the scoresheet, but his contribution to the team play was often negligible. He does put in effort to recover the ball but further prefers to be the end station of attack, rather than creating chances. He is often mocked as "Siem 2.0", of course referring to Siem de Jong for their comparable styles of play. I prefer Klaassen, but not by that wide a margin.

I like Davy, but I think it will be hard to become a star at Everton with his abilites. A useful player might still be a possibility.

Now you tell us....

Now you tell us....

Is there a 90 day cooling off period?

We probably didn't keep the receipts knowing us.

We had one of these already, by the name of Tom Cleverley and sold him for £6.

Hang in there Davy

 

[Pabbers]

He didnt even cost that much in todays inflated market. If he turns out a decent sauad player chipping in with a few goals then thats good enough.

 

[Brendan Janus]

Pitifully average !!

 

[davids]

Knee jerk reactions to a player trying to settle in to a new counrty and a club that is trying to assimilate a group of new players under a manager who it seems has lost his way.

So.. Steven Naismith then?

I have a feeling Barkley could well be open to staying if Koeman goes that's another good reason for us to get Koeman gone. Then I suppose it would just be up to the new manager to judge Klaassen. It's un fair judging most of our players ATM as some are being played out of position some aren't playing at all and confidence is very low, they all look very us happy, except Niasse he just looks over the moon to be playing. Everton just looks a depressed tean as a whole at the moment.

Koeman won't last under the 1st January, and thus Ross will stay I believe. See no reason why we can't use Unsworth and then get a big big name like Ancelotti in in the summer (he has said he won't manage this season).

 

[when i score we riot]

I'm betting him to score his first goal at Brighton this weekend. Also, he's basically a dutch Leon Osman

 

[riddick]

whose main strengths are his mentality, stamina, his runs inside the box and his finishing abilities.

See, I don't even see his "famed" stamina or "he will run forever for you" I see a lot of standing around looking at the ball.

A lot of the players mentioned here at least you could think "ok, THAT'S what he brings to the team". I can't see anything from Klassen at the moment at all.

 

[orly]

He's absolutely poo poo

Better not be first goalscorer mate, Brighton will probably be four deep by the time he comes on for the second half if Williams is playing
