Gerard Deulofeu

Nope, I think he's working harder as he's in form. But he's not covering more ground; he's just being more effective at what he does.

He deserves to be in the team, but it's not for the reason of him covering more ground.

I think the pressing from the front that we now do means of he's in the team, which he is, he may be covering more ground, it was him who ran from the left touch line to the other side of the pitch to pressure the WBA defender that ultimately lead to the goal that won it for us.

Mirallas isn't working harder?

Lost a stone in weight!
Must be working harder!

Yes, but Deulofeu has ran his arse off too. That's not an area of distinction between the two - what is different is that Mirallas has been more effective more often in the games played this season.

I fully expect le sulk to return momentarily, as that's who Mirallas is, but right now he deserves to be in the side. I was just pointing out that the reason he deserves to be are not what were stated in that post.

I miss those enticing crosses from the lad. Koeman will make him into a all round player then he will be back in business.

Simply not true.

My opinion mate, think he's worked harder than deulofeu when he's played this year.

 

[Kev The Rat]

Not sure where he fits now tbh. A shame he does have ability but no manager including the one who brought him here has any belief in him.

 

[Nyhus]

When played, he will get assists. I bet Koeman will use him more from the bench the coming games.

That's just not true

That's just not true

How is he not starting games then

I don't think Mirallas has worked harder, I just think Mirallas is stronger off the ball and knows how to win a challenge. They have both worked their asses off when they have played, and that is a good sign.

Fitness, and Mirallas is in form whilst bolasie is our new big money signing. Geri will be used as sub and rotating with either of them etc

Huge difference in our attacking when he came on, worked hard defensively as well.

changed the game imo LL, simply couldn't live with him and he stretched out the whole pitch. Could and probably should have bagged a goal or 2 himself as well.

A million times this.
