Aidan Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 Geri. I'm also so surprised how bad rom can play yet a few chances he can take and make them his own. He's a finisher and nothing else. Although I won't mind as long as he keeps finishing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted September 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 Geri.the only week I do MOTM thread and it's only one name that should be there Same for me. Rom looked transformed with Kone on the pitch, Galloway also deserves a mention. They got nothing down the left because of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smeghead1 Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 Couldn't watch it's went with the goalscorer and assist for Kone altho from what I did hear Delboy was just as effective! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newty82 Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 Geri. Looks dangerous most of the time he has the ball. Those crosses are lethal, precise and clever. His technique on some of them is quite unique. Romey 1878, Mirallas and Elston Gunnn 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shukes Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 Geri! They just could not handle him. Could have had a few more assists today too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeQuince Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 I wish I could give it to both Gerry and Rom, but I'll have to pick Gerry. Rom, though, showed some of the tenacity he showed in his first season tonight. That header reminded me of the first match he played for us. And he willed his second goal in. He never gave up once he clicked on. He's played too often on his back foot. But, once he gets on his front foot he's terrifying.

Mirallas Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 Lol you guys voted for Deulofeu Is this some kind of conspired joke? he was the leading cause of Everton losing posession. What exactly did he contribute according to you guys? duncanmckenzieismagic, Romey 1878 and StevO 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was lucky to be on the pitch for the start of the second half that's how poor he was. 3 balls across the 6 yard box and as the Belgian manager would say "lamp post" springs to mind. Let's hope he takes his second half effort levels into the derby. Deulofeu was on a different planet, his crossing reminded me of a young Ronaldo pre free role days.

c1982 Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 Deulofeu - he was THE game plan! We tried to get the ball to him early but couldn't and kept forcing it but when we did he put quality into the box every time. He was a different class!

Elston Gunnn Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 Geri's technique on some of them [crosses] is quite unique. Agree, an important observation. Unless the camera angle was misleading, he looked pretty close to the defender on several crosses, including the two goals, and suddenly lifted the ball over the defender, but with power. Most wingers, I think, have to have more space, and take more time. Deulofeu just snapped (?) those perfectly paced and placed crosses almost without warning. I don't recall seeing this technique much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hafnia Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 Gerry takes zero backlift and almost toepokes them with spin. That's how it looked. Class. Ronaldoesque Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldoesque Exactly what I was thinking when watching him cross the ball. It looks so odd and awkward, but it's very effective - they just come out of nowhere so it's hard for the defender to put a block in.

nyblue23 Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 Voted Galloway. Pretty much flawless on the ball, no glaring mistakes, good positioning and saved us the match with that tackle on Berahino. I'm not sure Mori was as bad as the game thread would indicate (his decision making was shaky once or twice but not altogether poor), but Galloway was playing with a first time PL starter next to him in the back line and you'd have never known it. Offense will always get the plaudits but Galloway MOTM for me indisputably. Rom did look a bit slow and lethargic at times, especially when Geri was on the ball (just get in the fucking box big guy), but fair to him his hold-up and link-up play were better than the have been most of the season. Deulofeu's crosses were dangerous but he started trying to force it at 2-0 and if not the cross for the first Rom goal I might have subbed him out. Seemed to lose composure a bit when Ross missed the chance, though I lost mine as well. For me, Geri and Rom were brilliant for the three goals but Galloway was perfect for 90 minutes.

Vranny Posted September 29, 2015 Report Share Posted September 29, 2015 Tempted to give it to Galloway (can't believe he's only got 3 votes so far this season), but I can't go past Deul-boy today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
