Would you sell Jelavic?

[The Hibbert Agenda]

They've both scored significantly more this season at ****ter teams with worse supply

'both' being Lukaku and Benteke (them belgians ****s)
Negredo doesn't exist as far as i'm concerned. he was just invented by GOT to break hearts.

 

[The Hibbert Agenda]

uh, GOT hates my creative vocabulary

Talk about people jumping the gun. Some of the comments on here baffle me. I can't believe people are ready to just sell him after one bad season. This place gets more and more like BlueKipper every day.

 

[Brownie86]

Give him another season at least, after last years performance and still scoring 8 this season I think he deserves it.

Imagine similarities between two Everton fan websites. The mind boggles.

I wouldn't say he's had a bad season, just a poor one compared to last year.

Jelavic has scored 8, Tim Cahill scored 3 last season.

But Cahill wasn't a striker.

Jelavic has the quality - it's Moyes who has ruined him, ala Beattie, AJ, Yakubu & Saha

Moyes sees a striker as first and foremost, an advanced defender. Jelavic needs Mirallas, and 2 other players in the ACM and LW positions buzzing around him and doing the running for him. Pienaar and Fellaini just dont do this.

Leading the line, on the last defender's shoulder - waiting on through balls behind the defence and crosses from byline are what Jella is good at. He has not got this this season!

Weren't a midfielder either.

He played in midfield a few times that season actually.

Besides, it seems a strange thing to bring up. Cahill was so crap in his last season that he went to the MLS. Saying Jelavic is better than that isn't saying much of anything.

 

[dbignall85]

Last season Cahill, Saha and Fellaini scored 11 between them, they were our biggest goal threats before Jelavic came along.

There's still time for him to get into double figures this year, (wouldn't bet on it) but I don't think 8 is a terrible return, it's just disappointing after the way he was scoring for fun when he arrived.

It's not just about his goal ratio though, he has scored once in 19 games now i think. That's absolutely shocking for a striker.

Indeed - stats aren't everything. Anyone can see he's just gone totally awful at football.

 

[Dell Boy]

Jelavic is a class act that's just going through a rough spell. We've all been there. Give him time and a decent pre-season and he'll be back to our working man's Berbatov in no time.

He't not the only one. RvP, Welbeck and Torres have all had barren runs this season.

I wouldn't get rid unless we had a top, top replacement lined up. As I've said before, if Fellaini is sold for £24m I would be happy if the majority of it was spent on someone like Benteke.
