2020/21 Jean-Philippe Gbamin

[Barnfred 55]

Because he's a complete Dope.

Stand out candidate for bell of the forum.

He has plenty of competition

There is one lad employed at our club who was out for 2 years and back stronger

Who’s that?

 

[Barnfred 55]

Gbamin Allan and Doucoure could potentially be one of those midfields that are relentless, eating up ground taking the ball off you and able to play to.

Could be the missing ingredient that allows us to play 2 rampaging full backs

Did his double injury keep him out for 2 (two) years?

In Carlo's own words

Now we hope he is going to be okay and in some time he will be ready again.

“I hope for him this moment can help him be stronger and have even more character and personality.

“This is what happened to me – I was out for two years with injury and I came back with more strength, more mental strength.

“This situation can help Gbamin to be a really strong man.”


Ancelotti says Gbamin has found his situation, with injury restricting him to just 135 minutes of football at Everton, tough but has told the midfielder recover at his own pace.

“I have spoken with Jean-Philippe a lot,” he added.

It’s nice that he’s offering encouragement out to the lad, but Carlo was forced into early retirement due to his injuries.

Gone be our midfield crusher.

In Carlo Ancelotti's day 32 was not considered to be early retirement
Even now how many 33-34 yr old's play regularly at the top level

Medical advancements mean players recover a lot better with little or no after effects

 

[Bullens Rd]

It'll be funny when, in two weeks, Carlo is saying "Gbamin will be back training with us soon".

Mate, it definitely was early and still is. Players may drop down levels as they get older, but he had to physically stop playing. No point pretending players retire at 32 when in peak physical condition.

Speaking on behalf of this thread - we are all delighted that he is nearly back.

Sadly I can't tag in Barry (he must have blocked me), so if some else can that would be great.

Is it only everton thats pays some players millions of pounds in wages without them actually playing more than 10 minutes?

Most clubs have injury insurance to cover that eventuality.

Welcome

....great news, we all need to think positive thoughts so they transmit through to his healing bits.

Good luck, fella, hopefully we see you soon.

Good luck JPG, give him some weeks training before he sees any minutes ease him slowly in.
