Pearson

Pearson

Don’t worry about him being good enough or not, he will be sold in the summer , and if he’s not good enough will end up out on loan at one of our rivals, see Hugill Cunningham and Robinson for examples!

Definitely Premier standard, but top six is pushing it, surely? Just a small criticism...does anyone else get the impression he doesn't think he's allowed to have a shot at goal himself, even when he's in position ?

I do
And he clearly has the ability
I just think the game has changed
The days of having a poke around the 19 yard box (control yourselves) has long gone

Those 3 wanted a move. I'm sure Pearson is ambitious but he came from a big club and knows that a transfer to a big club doesn't guarantee anything except a big pay packet. I wonder if he feels this is a club heading in the right direction with decent players and coach and it's not a bad place to be. We'll find out in the summer.

No.
 
Playing without Gallagher alongside him pushes him to take more responsibility in the passing game.

Gally in the team, he could sit back and keep things ticking over, lay it off for Gally to work with. Same with DJ, to some degree.

Browne alongside him, he's the one with the passing technique, he has to show it himself.
 
Premiership class definitely top six not sure I honestly think Neil has given him licence to get further toward as he did state he was a defensive midfielder but due to the lack of quality in the last third with the final pass Neil has allowed him to push higher up the pitch and both us and Pearson have benefited. We won’t have him much longer unfortunately.

Someone recently wrote on here that many teams don't play with a CDM role, so perhaps he's consciously re-inventing himself to show any new employer how else he can fit into a team.

They won’t be
He is good but it’s all too easy to get caught up in watching a player week in and week out at the standard of the championship - legend status will be next !!
Suggesting he is top six standard is one heck of a leap - what’s the barometer that would make a top six club look at him ?
He hasn’t played at that standard at all in his career, if he doesn’t then we will never know but football is a fickle industry and likes more certainty than it ever has.
Plus the style of play in the premiership is far more dynamic and less forgiving hence when a team go up and stay up for a second season the squad all to often changes radically
All that said their loss is our gain

Yes its also very easy to dumb down our own players, we still seem to have this "little Preston" attitude, I for one am glad Ridsdale is in charge of transfer dealings, at least whatever the outcome of the next 16/17 games we will get the best price if transferred. Having said that if he has a rush of blood to the head some will want rid at any cost!
 
The way Pearo plays, he's got a use for every team. Horrible little player who'll get the opposition riled up, and has the ability to match.

Ability wise mid-table Prem but his determination, gamesmanship and willingness to two foot a high rise building pushes him over the edge.

IMO should be on the plane for Euro 2020
 
He's like Kante, and would be an excellent addition to the England set-up. The only player in the England squad similar is Declan Rice and I believe Pearo is better than him. The only thing is his temper and England wouldn't be happy if he got sent off for a lunge or a 2 footed tackle whilst trying to run down the clock.
 
Tbf, Sheff Utd are a top six Prem club, Wilder has turned shitter players than Pearson into effective Premier League players.

All depends on the right manager and set up, from what i've seen of Everton, Pearson couldn't do much worse than players like Tom Davies & Schneiderlin for them.

I think top 6 generally refers to the big six, big spending clubs, rather than the teams that currently occupy the top 6 spots.

Bit pointless that when United & Arsenal are shite.

Rather join Wolves right now, wage packet aside.

Fuckin ell this has got out of hand, he's a very good player in this division and I think could comfortably play for a mid-table Premiership club, but talk of him going straight from us to a big PL club or the England set up is ridiculous

It is over the top but enjoying it, don't spoil it 😉
 
add elite premier league fitness to his game, cool his jets a bit maybe he could, but hes also vying for a position in a team not all teams need or play

*forgot to add, get a haircut too, or add 1970s side burns to the current style, either way make a decision ben
