all feeds dead for me now. this is the second very good team that Everton bas bossed around. WBKatter has taken over the midfield, speed on the edges, Cahill allowed to roam in the forward third and create havoc.
Donovan with a decent game today. I would give him a 5 so far. Has definitely proved he can play in the EPL but has not made a case for a 10million transfer so far. You could argue that Everton could have played anyone else in Donovan's position and the result would have been exactly the same. Everton is playing wonderful soccer right now. Pieannar and Feilani are awesome.
Ya, 'cause Everton was kicking teams like MC around the park, all year before LD got there. He has been good in his two games; deal with it.
I think it's hard to compare the two LD performances. He's done a ton more hard tracking back today. I thought he was "better" last week, but that's probably because the obvious stuff -- dribbling, etc. -- was better. Today may have been a more impactful effort for what Everton needed. The other midfielders were running rampant.
Everton had been playing very well right before Donovan arrived. He will help the team I just have doubts if he is worth $10million. He has a few more weeks to make his case. We'll see. Everton playing really well at the moment.
He's gonna play himself onto that Best XI team with Dempsey. He's the biggest reason that Everton is playing like a Big 3 team at the moment.
If Bilyatedinov was worth $20 million on purchase, I think it is fair to value Donovan on his performances so far at around $12 million. They've been similar today. I would rate them both a 6.
