The previous three signings of Roberto Martinez created a wave of discussion among the football fans as they were all on the Wigan squad last season. There were some jokes made on the signings and even the Everton supporters looked puzzled.
The signing of Robles has definitely created a slight concern on Tim Howard's mind. We could take this case as the "Friedel-Lloris" situation at Spurs last season. But the signing that lit up everyone's eyes was the fourth one!
Yes, Everton have made the fourth signing of the season and its none other than young gem Deulofeu! He was signed from Barcelona B on a season-long loan deal. Deulofeu is highly regarded as the future star and has some incredible footballing attributes at a very young age.
FTT Scout Player Report: From the scout's perspective, here is a brief description of him. He looks to have exceptional technique when hitting the ball and possesses a good amount of pace that he uses to get past the defenders. He has a good eye for goals and has the ability to squeeze goals from anywhere including the tight angles. Due to his abilities, he looks to handle the situation on his own at times and tends to look selfish.
A lot of people are talking about how Deulofeu could be a great asset for Everton this year. We totally agree on that but when it comes to FPL perspective, we have a slight concern!
Martinez is likely to opt for 3-5-3 or a 4-3-3 as the formations fit into his tactics. Either of these formations suggests us that there will be three forwards in the team. Two on the wing and one as a central striker. Deulofeu is naturally a winger and can play at both wings and his ability lets him play as a striker too when needed. This could lead him being listed as a forward in FPL. Martinez loves his team to get slightly offensive but with Jelavic and Kone in the team, it would not be wise to say that Deulofeu would be played as a central striker. The most likely position for him looks to be a left-winger as Mirallas is naturally a right winger. Also, he is young and learning, so we should see how well he can take on EPL defenders.
He could also be sharing his game-time with Steven Pienaar. And, last but not the least, we have to see how well he can adapt into the Premier League.
TIP: Let us be patient and see how he is deployed by Martinez. Keeping him on the first week would definitely be a gamble.
