2018/19 Gylfi Sigurdsson

[GrandOldTeam]

I remember he had Slippery in his pocket in a European game at the pit,so it was expected he'd run the show in every game he played in,the fact it was a new country,new team mates mattered little.

Was a whole lot of "we signed him because of one good game"

To be fair we have history.

Seems like the sort of flames @Del would happily fan.

 

[ilikecheese]

Such a luxury of patience wasn't afforded to Fellaini. He was 20, signed from Belgian...

It's all price tag, fans fester on it.

Even though Richarlison apparently broke the transfer market because of his fee, he generally flies below the radar of the fee nazis because of Gylfi. He should buy him dinner.

Or because he's 21

Or because he's been played out of position and still looked good

Or because he actually looks worth the money we spent

Or because that useless Icelandic fraud has him starved of service.

Those could be possible explanations.

Lukaku had a bullseye on him his entire time he played for us. Richarlison is benefiting from that bullseye being on someone else.

From a very small weird section of our support.

Most people knew he was a work in progress but had a disastrous touch. Anyone who wasn't impressed with his goalscoring needs a word.

Lukaku also wasn't played out of position for half his first season.

Richarlison is benefitting from the focus being elsewhere but there's a reason it's on Sigurdsson.

Yeah the price tag, o and he was acquired by Walsh/Koeman, that's all it is

I mean we basically bought Swansea's relegation. That was part of the deal.

It doesn't matter though. It's the sticker shock.

Do you even watch Everton games?

The vultures are circling over Richarlison now, people fuming at his diving and not scoring a goal a game, saying he's a sulky brat. Social media has handed a voice and anonymity for people to exercise the right to freedom of speech no matter how damaging or hurtful.

Yeah, too bad really. I agree on the diving, needs to stop that bs, but other than that, I think he’s doing well. Young player in a new team during a trasitional season, playing in front of a semi hostile crowd, it would be a lot more surprising if he was able to keep his early season form going.
I think resting him for a couple of weeks would do him a lot of good.

 

[Richard Anderson]

It’s Rooney’s and Martina’s fault that he hasn’t turned up in 3 months.

Sell Gylfi, Tosun and Bolasie to Cyrstal Palace - similar to how we turned Sunderland into Everton B a few years ago.
