I will get a lot of bad responses for this, but he is much better than Paulinho & Vidal for that spot tbh. That isn't speaking much of him than the other btw

He is. People focus on the mistakes, and they're right sort of because they're just abysmally bad, but he does good things too. If Paulinho can't keep his goal ratio, he has nothing over Gomes imo. He's that bad.

I don't even see why that's worth discussing. For me, Paulinho without his goals is much worse than even Arda Turan.

I agree. There is also one more thing, I am sure we will be able to sell Gomes to someone but Paulinho will be 30 years old within few months so we are basically stuck with him.

Gomes spent most of the game far out wide

He played where EV put him.

Nervy start but did overall better in 2nd half. Just hope EV will give him some minutes in easier games to lesser pressure on him. It's not easy when you're not playing for a month and then have to come into the game against AM.

Really? He was brought on to play on the right side of midfield because Coutinho moved to the left. Why is it then that he was often found in the centre and on the left of midfield?

I love Coutinho, but we'll need to test Gomes instead of Iniesta next weekend. Don't know who else should play instead of him vs Chelsea and basically this is the position he plays best in.

I am not too sure that we will sell Gomes.
According to yesterday's game, he is currently a 2nd pick among workhorses (Rakitic, Gomes, Paulinho).

If Iniesta will be gone or if he will be benched, that offers even more playing time for Gomes in the future.

I get it, people think that Dembele will start to play a lot and that Gomes and Paulinho will lose their minutes.
But if Ev will win titles this way, there is nothing till now which indicates that he will make a sudden 180* turn.

Denis and Rafinha will be sold.
Samper won't return.
Gomes has high chances to stay.

Expecting Gomes to leave is the same as expecting that Semedo will turn into a starting Rb and that Roberto will be a midfielder.
That won't happen.
Ev has it's own pecking order.
You can like it or not, but he won't change something only because fans don't like it.

Gomes, Busi, Raki, Paulinho/Vidal.
That will be our lineup.

At least even biggest Gomes' haters will admit that Gomes is offering more as a footballer than Paulinho currently.

I would consider he was disappointed of the crowd whistling since this was a very crucial game. Pathetic stuff from some on the stands.


I think people should take matters into their hands the next game he plays they should invade the pitch and break his legs so we don't see him ever playing for us .

What if we invade your workplace and break your legs whenever you are underperforming?

I also hope next time you fail whatever the fck you do in life, you will be punished by the same method, seems legit.
