Left Midfield

[mini-Blues x 2]

I'd keep him because he's probably not on much, is a good hand and is versatile

Every team needs a Bryan Oviedo type player who they can plug in to the side in an emergency

Seeing as we've culled a few veterans, it makes sense to keep Bry on the pay roll as back up, provided he can stay healthy and can put up with not getting that many first team minutes

Hes like our old Alan Harper

.....but not as good I'm afraid.

Depends on how we're setting up.

If it's the left man in the three in a 4231, Mirallas is the man.

If it's the left man in the forward-most three in a 433, Mirallas is the man.

If it's the left man in the midfield three in a 433, then it's Besic.

If it's the left man in the four-strong midfield of a 442, then it's Oviedo.

Try out Oviedo there in pre-season

He's a versatile player and I reckon he'd do well in that position

We really have to be aiming for better than this lightweight nonentity. Lad has been here 4 years and hasn't got anywhere near nailing a first team place down.

 

[Abraders]

Mata will surely just play on the left,or Mirallas

Oviedo is another turd that needs emptying out.

Not good enough to be anywhere near the first team. Nice lad though.

Somewhat controversial - but i would move him on, don't think he should have got a new contract.

Baines, Galloway and now garbutt back at Everton. Oviedo could well be surplus to requirements. Could see him going to a newly promoted club.

Filip Kostic?

 

[bluestevon]

Perisic all day for that left wing if we could realistically get him, would be absolutely lethal linking up with Baines down that left side...

Hopefully the links to the polish lad are just blag rumours, don't think he is any better than what we have already (and significantly inferior to Mirallas) although may be useful as just a squad player - and probably would sign for that offer as it is all he is at Rennes atm

But yeah, Perisic would give us a world class left side

 

[Garybirch88]

Yannick Bolasie, I'm a huge fan, think he's a lot better than crystal palace and would love to see him at Everton.
Power pace and can cause murder on a wing.

As the transfer window is upon us and we've been calling out for a left midfielder for a couple of years now I wonder if this window me may actually sign someone to fill that role. Yarmolenko's plane seems to still be delayed and hasn't arrived at Liverpool John Lennon Airport yet and I don't there is much chance of that before the end of the window either.
We've been linked with players this window already who could play left midfield/wing. Nani, Sneijder, Bolasie, probably Yarmolenko and Riquelme names will pop up before the end of the window too.
Here's a few players i'd like to see head to Everton:
Konoplyanka
Perisic
Jese

We already have Mirallas who may get a chance this season to play and i'm sure Deulofeu could play there too. Dowell coming through as well but we need to get a replacement for Pienaar really.
I know there is a transfer thread however I rarely start threads and wanted to get people's opinion on just this position.
COYB.

Generally i would like us to move for Jese once real madrid finish stock piling all their players before they get their ban. Good winger, attack minded and can play accross the front which fills in a few gaps at the same time.

Get him for 10 million or less and he would be a bargain.

(no idea how high real rate him though...)

Griggs

Does he play at LM?

Catchy tune though
