Playing as a no 10 and running the game.

Digne and Suarez were the two players of Barca I wanted in the summer. Hopefully we will get the 2nd in January.

He was also playing left CB in 3 which I think didn't help him but yea his passing wasn't good. TBH I think Keane and Zouma are both better although Zouma was poor for one of their goals too. However it was City.

Yea they have been our better players all season although mina was a bit lucky today. Shows the talent you guys have on your bench.

I really would wish these pundits and media outlets would stop trying to get other teams to poach Gomes of us We love him and are desperate he chooses to stay.

I don't think anyone is claiming Gomes is suitable for Barca but he was never a bad player or deserved the treatment he received from the fans.

100% agree. You are still winning leagues and cups. Look at Utd. They have had half a decade or so in the wilderness once the likes of Ferguson, Giggs, Scholes, Ronaldo, Rooney etc either left them or faded. And they have spent an absolute fortune. Right now Messi and Barca's reputation is...

There's a massive difference between the elite players like Suarez, Neymar, Hazard etc and Messi and Ronaldo and then the drop down to the merely top players is greater again. When you are used to seeing those players play every week even comparing the likes of Ronaldo and Neymar to Messi it's...

Nope but I'm worried at some point you may take ours.

Hopefully in January we will make the deal plus I still think we should put an offer in for Denis Suarez. It's funny to think but a bit like City or Chelsea your B team would probably challenge the top 4 of most leagues.

Yea the history with him is a bit strange. We bought him of a Croatian team after we played them in the UEFA cup. Then because we bought a number of attacking midfielders and neither Koeman or Allardyce played a style suited to him he struggled for game time. I get the feeling it was either him...

Thank god we never went for him. Just goes to show the risks buying potential.

Everton fans? Yea we love him but I don't think brands will be so emotional :-) I think we will get the deal done because ultimately I think all parties want to see the deal done.

Brands at the time said we didn't have the money and that Barca wanted only to sell before giving in to a loan and Silva just recently said Barca refused to sell. Personally I believe the account from Brands just because it was closer to the time and because I think Silva is trying to lessen...

I think it will depend on who we can sell. There is various reports but the one that came out at the time which I believe is true was we just couldn't afford him in the summer having spent so much money over the last few windows. However if we can get rid of Schneiderlin and/or Tosun who were...

He's a bit more than that. In the past we have had Gareth Barry or Schneiderlin playing that role but neither had the ability to also run with the ball through midfield. Gomes gives us that. When we had Barkley he did that job but it meant we were then short in attack because he needed to drop...

Hopefully he will also follow Gomes to Everton. We could do with another wide forward as Walcott and Bernard haven't been great and Lookman is still a kid. I've always like Denis.

I hope so but unfortunately we dropped some silly points at the start of the season so top 6 may be tough but I think we won't be too far off.

Kane's not limited at all outside the box. Spurs in the past would often play him as a 10. The only thing he doesn't have is blistering pace - but he's not slow either. All of the players mentioned are massive gambles. Maybe not in terms of money but what happens if they don't work out and...
