2019/20 Gylfi Sigurdsson

[MikeH72]

Would anyone, genuinely, be upset if he left anytime soon?

Large majority would, probably, celebrate his exit. Time to stop excusing him because he scored a few good goals.

I love the way people look at Wikipedia and see he scored 13 goals and so assume he had 13 good games.

He's an anchor in midfield. I mean literally, he's an anchor.

Is that anchor spelt with a W?

Two against Fulham where he was dire so there's 12 games

It’s the penalty he pays due to his price tag which was in no way his fault. People latch onto it though.

If you spend £1m on a Ferrari and it drives like a used Fiat Panda, you’re not gonna be happy.

Nope, but you can’t blame the car for the fact that you didn’t do the diligence you should’ve or valued it incorrectly

You can't say we weren't warned... https://www.theguardian.com/footbal...fi-sigurdsson-everton-swansea-transfer-window

The alternatives put forward are comedy gold though. Just shows player recruitment is open to all kinds of mad opinions and rationale. Or a lottery. We ain't had a winning ticket recently though...

 

[Abraders]

The mad thing is he doesn't even score free kicks here or anything which defo would have helped his case lol.

Sell

Sigurdsson was not nearly as effective from open play last season. His figure of 25 key passes from open play was incredibly modest to say the least. It’s the same number that Gareth Barry and Idrissa Gueye produced for Everton from holding midfield and less than half of Barkley’s total (56).

And there it is.

No, but if you hired a professional to do that due diligence, you’d probably be pretty angry with that person and the car.

has this analogy run it’s course?

If your using wiki to assess Everton players I think that might be where your going wrong to be honest mate.

Im not sure he has any fans anymore.

But there are certainly a lot of people patting themselves on the back and claiming they wrote him off first.
