....it’s a very good point, Matey. I think we’re comparing apples with pears, though. Totally agree about Gordon; dynamic, pacy, uncomplicated, effective. I think he’s certainly more suited to that wide position than Iwobi.
i just think there’s signs with Iwobi that he can unlock defences. He can join-in with the likes of Rodriguez more than Sigurdsson, which is a surprise. I still think he might be most effective playing central. He’s a powerful runner with or without possession rather than somebody like Gordon who goes past and exploits the space behind the full back.
i agree with you about Gordon, it’s just that I’m chuffed to be seeing a few ‘that’ll do me’ moments from Iwobi.

Best performance of the season so far for me,taking into account Allan being out,Richarlison having to go off early,Seamus injured too,having Pickford in nets
fringe(formerly cringe @AndyC 
players) Davies,Siguurdsonn,Iwobi,Delph all look different players now,Doucoure,great game,Calvert Lewin with his goal again,what can you say about Rodriguez?MOTM for me though,big Yerry,spot on,up the Toffs!!!

Hopefully a multi talented Blue on here can spoil us with a Riverdance Spirit of The Blues.
Good post this.
The central position is open (assuming James is allowed to float) and anyone of Sig/Gomes/Bernard can stake a claim. Gylfi has looked good the last couple of games and Bernard stood out against Fleetwood. If Iwobi can add to the competition on Gomes it can only be good for the squad.
I hope you are right and I’m wrong mate
Thank you for acknowledging my claim from years ago.
It may very well be the only time I’m right.

Player Ratings:
Pickford 2- Seem not able to cover post to post from long range missiles. Neither can cope with short range head on softies, palming either into goal or giving assist.
Coleman 8- Appreciate his value more when you see how Davies is so vulnerable at his position.
Keane 7- A bit tired after 6 continuous full game otherwise accomplished.
Mina 9- Important header reminding us of his 2 headers before half time which calmed the team going into the tunnel. His timely blocks helped keep classic Everton self implosion at bay.
Digne 8- Decent game.
Doucoure 8.5- Have to be less box to box as need to cover for slower compatriots Sig n Tom. Else when free to advance crafted assist of beauty.
Siggy 7- Played his heart out tracking back in first half. 2nd half was less visible.
Davies 6- Painfully awkward in first half, clueless and shied away from receiving passes in opponent's half. Beside passing back he was again gutless. 2nd half put in a couple of tackles and was more lively when we led by 2 goals. Vulnerable at right back.
James 9.5- One assist, Two goals, pace maker, goal creator, pass stringer, … just magnificent footballer.
Richarlison 8- Can see the injury affected him but faultless in commitment, which resulted in aggravating his injury. A warrior.
DCL 8- Can't seem to shake off scoring. Hope he keeps up with the addiction.
Delph 7.5- Revived player after his sent off and the long break. Seem to be more humble and wants to improve. Decent today.
Walcott 5- Under performed perhaps to less game time.
Carlos 9- Equalled Four wins feat since 1895. Not easy accomplishment if you are managing the Blues.
COYB, UTT. Derby's next.

He's got a vote now, up and running is DCL
[/QUOTE]
Incredible really that DCL gets his 9th goal to set us on the road to victory and not one vote (yet) for MotM - shows how good things are
