Who cares about the performance, I give him a 10/10 for being a total shithouse and kicking the ball back onto pitch when he was subbed.
The smirk he gave us was great![Big Grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)

What is the similarities between joelinton and mctominaIn theory, McTominay and 20M for Onana would probably slightly improve Everton's midfield in Dyche-ball (Doucoure, Mctominay, Garner and Gueye fighting for 3 spots) and give them a bit of cash to spend elsewhere. Might fit Newcastle well too, since he and Joelinton have some similarities.
the similarities between him and joelinton must be the height.

Rodri played nearly 100 passes, Mctominay was a bit of a non entity in the game really. His two biggest contributions were time wasting at the end and carelessly giving the ball away in build up to the City goal. He was largely a passenger but it didn’t really matter and his positioning was better than normal which helped.Don’t think people appreciate what a big contribution he made yesterday. He for the whole, prevented Rodri getting on the ball and dictating the game as he normally does.

He came from the academy so opening up large amounts of FFP allowance. ideally goneNo chance we let Casemiro, Eriksen, McTom and Amrabat leave in one summer.
McTom is probably the to of the keep list of the above.
Aha, yes.No I agree. But you try to bring in funds to improve the team. And if that means you sell obvious bench players, you should do it. The bench should consist of players who are battling it out for a spot in the starting eleven. And players who recently lost that spot. And talents who have the potential to become starters in the future.
I also wouldn't it call "kicking him out". He has been a model professional for us. He should make a name for himself in a team where he starts every week.
We'd also get a relatively good fee given the amount of goals he scored. That could blind potential suitors to his overall shite football ability. If we want a decent fee now's the time to get it.He came from the academy so opening up large amounts of FFP allowance. ideally gone
Huge mobile CMs who aren't trustworthy in the build up and are only really playable as attacking mids, so have to be used in sides that rely on transition more than possession. Joelinton better tackler/presser, McTominay better finisher. Joelinton would struggle here too as a starter.What is the similarities between joelinton and mctomina

“I feel refreshed. I’ve had a good break, a short one after the FA Cup final and I’m raring to go.
“These are the moments you live for as a football player and I want to take it all in my stride.
“Everything’s been good in the build-up. All the facilities are amazing and all the staff, everyone who has helped us while we’ve been in Germany have been top-drawer to be fair and I think the boys are ready to go and create some more history.
“You can never be too high in the lead-up to a game because you might fizzle out towards the back end of the week, but I’m calm, cool and ready to take it all in my stride and see how we get on.
“The second goal [against Spain] was probably one of my favourite goals I’ve ever scored, in terms of a historic night for Scotland.
“Kieran Tierney did unbelievable down the wing and, obviously, it’s moments like that we have to take advantage of in big games like against Germany, Switzerland and Hungary as well.”
I still could see him getting sold, though I think Ten Hag staying probably hurts that possibility (he's exactly the the kind of player a new possession-inclined manager would sell immediately like Pep with Joe Hart). Seems like he has 2 years left (1 with a club option) and we might be short on cash, and we need 4-6 new players.Beggers belief frankly that a player with so little talent is still featuring regularly in the midfield for Manchester United. There were no takers for him last year when he was apparently up for sale and there doesn’t seem as though there will be any this. But yet he’s somehow good enough for us to be a regular starter. No wonder we are now a mediocre mid table team.
Considering Ten Hag seemed very willing to get rid last summer I wouldn't be surprised if he was moved on. If we bring in two deeper lying midfielders then I don't see much space for himI still could see him getting sold, though I think Ten Hag staying probably hurts that possibility (he's exactly the the kind of player a new possession-inclined manager would sell immediately like Pep with Joe Hart).

I'd say Ten Hag will want to stick with him as his goals really helped him out at times. For me he's shown many many times he's simply not good enough to be playing for a team that's wanting to challenge for Champions league places. I'd be happy if the club moved him on, it's long over due.Considering Ten Hag seemed very willing to get rid last summer I wouldn't be surprised if he was moved on.

I agree with your assessment, but would keep unless we get an offer of GBP 40million. He has improved in being part of the build up play and has the annoying Lampard pop up with goals when it matters happens. Valuable player to have in a squad.McTominay wouldn't start much for a league winning side but he's a big, strong,motivated player who provides a manager with a bit of tactical flexibility in midfield and has a habit of scoring goals in big moments. He also doesn't make himself a distraction when he's not starting every match.
I think moving on from Eriksen and Casemiro are the biggest priorities but if there's a good fee out there for McTom and more suitable midfielder available I'd pull the trigger.
Exactly. I feel like I'm losing my mind with the sheer amount of people willing to bring back so many from this last clusterfeck of a season.I'd say Ten Hag will want to stick with him as his goals really helped him out at times.

Most definitely. He kept Ten Hag in the job with his late goals in the middle of the season. Also, you don't see your 10 goals midfielder when you are already a low scoring team. The hope is that we'll sign one or two midfielders in this window and McTom's role is of a super sub who can come late in games, get in the box and get goals in games we are chasing.I'd say Ten Hag will want to stick with him as his goals really helped him out at times.

That's the Lingard syndrome. Not remotely good enough to be anywhere near the club but gets a free pass forever because of the "good squad player" and "hard working academy product" platitudes.Crazy talk about selling him. Too good and versatile to be sold. Perfect squad player in a functional team
It's funny how posters in here spend all season criticizing every player and fantasizing about massive squad clearouts, and then the moment the season ends, the sentiment suddenly shifts to "good squad player, keep him".That's the Lingard syndrome. Not remotely good enough to be anywhere near the club but gets a free pass forever because of the "good squad player" and "hard working academy product" platitudes.
Of course we'll keep him anyway, because ETH knows McTominay's goals bailed out some of his incompetence by single-handedly rescuing 10 points against what should have been cannon fodder.
What an insult to O'SheaI say we keep him. He’s more than just a good squad player who shows passion and dedication. He’s, in a way, our O’Shea. He is also important to help the academy players. As far as I know, he hasn’t bad mouth the managers, squad and club and didn’t run away to the first club to approach him when things got tough for him. That’s my option anyway.
Didn't much like Lingard. If we had a better squad he'd be a great player to have as a squad player, ala O'Shea, etc. In an average squad he ends up being relied upon much more then he probably should.That's the Lingard syndrome.
