G. Deulofeu just expressed his desire of returning to Goodison as he has no future in Barcalona.
Honestly, I would be thrilled to see him back in the blue shirt. I just have that extra edge to lock up a solid defense which we desperately needs. Perfect replacement for Mirallas as well!
My fingers are crossed. He already got all what it takes, he just needs to mature in his style of play :)
{Ed025's Note - he would be a great signing for me BH..

Indeed Ed. If we can get 12-14 mil for Mirallas and buy Deulofeu for 10-12 mil I think that would be a great deal of business, since Mirallas won't play for us anymore.

Oh how we view the past with rose tinted glasses. It would seem that everyone here has bought into his hype and forgotten the reality. Gerry was one of the worst players I've ever seen at Goodison.
All he did, every game, was give it away. He'd either get it, put his head down and run straight out of play, or stop, do 5 step overs and get tackled. He was absolutely shocking and Lukaku hated him because he NEVER crossed or passed, just shot from an absurd angle. He was lazy, greedy, couldn't pass, couldn't dribble, couldn't cross, couldn't shoot. I'm usually a muted figure at the games, but he is the only player to ever make me stand to my feet and shout profanity. Presumably Barca actually paid attention to his sting with us and that's why they don't want him.
I'd rather have Atsu, McGeady, Lennon, Gueye or Shandy Andy over him! Either way, I expect to see the Spanish Fool spending £15m plus on him because he's a 'diamond' in a 'special moment' of his career.

AB, You may have stood up and shouted profanities but most people just stood up because that's what Deulofeu did, he got you out of your seat.By the way if he's one of the worst players you've seen at Goodison then you haven't been going long. He's young he's talented and he's exciting. His shortcomings would be beaten out of him in the dressing room and training pitch.

Agree with mike, if he's one of the worst ab you haven't seen many, magaye gueye for me is the worst winger I've ever seen, full stop. Not to mention awful players like jo, anichebe, pistone, straqualersi (for all his heart) and angell. couldn't cross? Those peaches across the 6 yard area that he used to always do which is every strikers wet dream and no one got on them. couldn't dribble? Did you watch him? One of the few I've seen with such good control to easily go past 5 or 6 players in the box. He was the only player to make you stand up and shout? Havent you been watching leon osman these past 10 years? ;)

He's a bit of a luxury, when you need someone to battle and get stuck in ne often went awol
