Gerard Deulofeu

[Liam-EFC]

We really should just pull the plug on the deal for that 2nd half performance in 2005...

Modern times may have some influence on koemans decision to loan Geri or even sell. You only need to look at The top 3 of Chelsea, spurs and the other lot to see they play with no real out and out wingers. (Besides maybe Moses)

They play with wing backs and this is why we also see mirrallas Playing more centrally.

Im kind of disappointed that Koeman has loaned out Deulofeu.On his day Geri is a match winner for us but Koeman just didn't take to him.Im disappointed with our transfer activity so far.Sure we signed a promising player in Lookman and we bought in Schneiderlin from Man United but overall it's been pretty underwhelming.Hopefully that will change over the course of the next few days.

What did you expect, honestly mate, anyone else done better this January?

 

[Brennan]

They are well fitter than English players.....and playing on for longer proves that.

Disagree massively with this. Fitness is huge in English football.

I'd say the reason why players can play for longer is because the pace of the game is slower in those leagues.

Moses plays fullback

Disappointed, thought he would have been the break out player under koeman but went the opposite way, he's had one proper spell about 2 seasons back when he was on fire for about 4/5 games (in a more central role) but in fairness to koeman, nothing since, so understandable but still disappointing..

I don't care about anyone else mate.I only care about Everton. What did i expect?I expected more than 2 signings by the 21st of January but hopefully a few more players will arrive before the window closes.Im so sorry for daring to offer an opinion.

 

[Frank Gallagher]

the more this drags on the less chance we have of replacing him. he's going to go on deadline day for the same deal thats been on the table for the last 2 weeks and we will be left with no time to bring anyone in.

Everton THAT

Spot on that.

 

[DaChunk]

If we're letting him out on loan does that indicate that we might have a replacement lined up?

Correct. Tempo and pressing is very low on the priority list. Quickest team is Napoli that's about it.

 

[hktoffee]

The board won't do deal with the Italians (Milan) now surely?

 

[Baines' left foot]

Yeah but them crosses to Lakooku!

 

[4737carlin]

We don't need a replacement, didn't even make the bench last week, we all ready have enough players in the squad to cover him going. It's not like we have a back log of cup games to play and are neck and neck for 4th.
Koeman has made it clear he isn't in our plans, no need to replace a player like that.
