It's not though is it? He's been given less than minimal chances here, and Chelsea have given youth a chance this season. It actually makes perfect sense from his perspective.

Deal goes through, I think we'll all be well Plea-sed.
Maybe in a season where Williams and Greenwood established themselves in the team, gomes just didn't have the right attitude or ability to make it? Chelsea had a transfer ban and numerous players returning from successful loans.
That's not really the point though. Regardless of how or why Gomes didn't get chances, and why Chelsea players did, it's what's happened. You cant just assume he's moving for money when there's an argument he'll get more of a look in at Chelsea, not really fair.
Ole doesn't like players like him though
I don't think he's getting first-team minutes at Chelsea, even if they decided on a self-imposed transfer ban for the next few years. There is no way he is taking minutes away from Pulisic, Barkley, Mount, or CHO.
I would advise going to France, Germany or Portugal to try to get his career started.
Gomes and Gilmour will be the most bullied midfield ever
They're just trying to get more money out of Everton. Nothing story.
He doesn’t. Don’t see it happening at all, totally agent led bullshit.
Yup.
In fact, I think that - pre-lockdown - we were heading into a window with a pretty clear vision as to what we're looking for.
Sancho (target 1), Grealish, Bellingham and making Ighalo deal permanent.
All this was pretty transparent (as transparency over transfers go) and we know from last summer that Ole would sooner stick with what he's got than bring in players for the sake of it.
With this, I think it's safe/almost not worth posting anything regarding other players. It'll be utter horseshite.
Alassane Plea - All 19 goals & assists

Yeah there was a time where I thought we should go after him but he seems an idiot.
Shame because he’s a solid player.
Gomes is so slight of build that it’s no surprise he isn’t getting first team minutes.
He’s only 19. A full season long loan to the Dutch league would do him well. Odegaard really benefited from it.
At Chelsea they have ziyech coming in as well as the players mentioned.
a guy that hardly starts at Schalke yeah OK 
Oy veh
I imagine we are looking at him, but no way as a Sancho back up.
Agreed
If that`s the "Sancho alternative" better we sign nobody then.
Juve bringing in that money ready to bid for Pogba?
When I look at their squad. My God! They have lot of ageing 30 players and they still want to sign more.
Yeah the backup to a 100m super talent is someone most have never heard of. The BS that the media get away with posting
It's a real shame this wasn't happening at an Arsenal or Spurs. We could do with a talent of Sane's capabilities. I know Sancho is clearly the ideal choice but getting him comes with alot of noise and difficulty. I reckon if Bayern can get him for 65 million that's excellent business. They would have amassed Sane and Gnabry for absolute peanuts. With Kingsley being able to rotate around them. Perhaps the closest thing to the Robben / Ribery dynamic duo.
Barca or PSG?
I don't know why I didn't mention Barcelona in the post. Probably deleted since I mentioned "all the ageing players" and decided to removed it from the post.
dont think Barca need him when they got Arthur and De Jong, unless they sell/trade Arthur for him. All a bit weird, Pjanic isn't the youngest anymore
That's good.
Good call, and there are probably a few others as well that I am forgetting.
Ahh ok. Come to think of it, they do have a pretty ageing squad. Their main man isn't getting any younger either.
Ultimately, its about having that balance. This was something that Sir Alex was a genius at. Having that blend of youth and experience. I look at our squad, and although Ole has been targeting young players, its always good to have those experienced heads that can come in and add make that immediate impact, both on and off the pitch, i.e. Bruno, Ighalo and Maguire.
I always thought Pjanic is 25 instead of 30. How did i get that impression I don’t know
We should have signed him when David Moyles was manager.
Do they need another ageing midfielders at this point though for balance?
