Funny What Real Footballers Think About Siggy 07:28 - Aug 17 with 3456 views | STID2017 | Kevin Radcliffe thinks he's a brilliant signing for Everton, but a massive loss for Swansea. Ian Walsh thinks he is "Irreplaceable" Meanwhile The Res maintains he is / was a waste of a shirt and is dreaming of the day when Llorente goes as well so his plan to see Swans become a great team again really starts taking shape. You just can't make it up. It's great having a solid defence that can come through in a backs to the wall performance. However our major single creative outlet has left and needs replacing urgently, otherwise goals for will be as rare as hen's teeth this season | |

A dyed in the wool Evertonian, I am shocked, and Walsh for a former player surprisingly doesn't have a lot of good things to say about us. He's gone, time to move on, let's at least wait ad see who comes in before we write the season off! | |

I know what it means to love the club but the emotional attachment that some grown men form with club employees is bewildering.

Kevin ratcliffe. The Welsh Paul Merson. Interestingly, we messed up his managerial career as well. | |

Funny how Everton are more than happy to make this player a record signing! We each all have opinions. Koeman discussed in his interview abiut repalacing Lukakus goals....how are we going to replace those of Gylfi plus his assists? Lots has been said on here re how the goals will come form the team as a result of losing this player who is causing us so many problems in our game...the real issue is we will not replace it with the same quality that is departing....and when we start to look at the team where do people see the goals. Tammy is unoriven at this level...Ayew though impresseive at times hardly set the world alight at Villa,Routs is Routs. But the main gist of this OP is funny how this player is "crap" but yet those "professionals" think otherwise | |

As you say we all have opinions, and Gylfi is a good player who did well for us, but only two teams came in for him, none of the big six were remotely interested, I sincerely hope he does well there, except against us | |

Hardly a car crash Neathie. Seems you do like to have a pop at me on here after all. All I have said, as many others have on this forum, is that I fully appreciate the massive contribution Siggy has made to our club, I wish him the best for the future, many people who have played football at the top level (including the two I cited) view him as a great signing for Everton and a massive loss for us. Even in these days of ridiculous transfer fee, the amount of money paid for him shows the faith Everton have in him. I also stated (based on our only performance so far this season) that the defence seems fairly tight (although I feel there are far sterner tests ahead) but we need to find a creative force to replace Siggy. Instead of just coming back with a one liner, please tell me what from all that is incorrect ? For example where do you see the 25 + goals coming from that Siggy scored or created last season ? | |

At least wait until the window closes, all I hope is we are not going to get pining for Gylfi posts throughout the season | |

A team like Everton is exactly who should be buying someone like Siggy. They have bigger players than him so wont be tempted to play everything through him. He most certainly will score less and assist less than he did for us last season. Does that mean he has gone worse? Of course not. He just won't be the focal point of attscks for them. | |

No player is bigger than the club, we've had "heroes" before, none bigger probably than Curt or Ivor, the club has survived in the long run (with quite a few bumps along the way) Same with Gylfi, and every other player who has been a success for us. It's nice to look back whether it's to last season or the 1970's and remember the enjoyment past players have given us. The most important thing now is that we replace Gylfi with players who give us goals and flair to build on what we (eventually) achieved last season. I'm not "pining" for Gylfi, any more than I wish we had Michu or any of the others in the team today. It's up to the class of 2017 - 18 to make this a great season and it's up to the board to get behind PC and his coaches to give them the tools to do it. | |

Don't disagree with the opinion. Just the chosen sources. You went Kevin Ratcliffe. You never go full Ratcliffe. | |

We rarely ever scored from his corners. Did puzzle me slightly how he could be so accurate and dangerous with free kicks yet his corners were so uninspiring. | | | |

Were you watching the same corners as me last season, it was the first time in my thirty years in watching the Swans that we looked dangerous from every set piece. | |
