Exactly, a player actually looking up when playing a ball through. Who’d have thought it!

The way he picked the ball up about two minutes after coming on, cut back, slowed down time itself then knocked it to Sigurdsson for the assist is something I haven’t seen from an Everton player in years.

It also shows just what he can do when there's space in front of him.

However, you rarely get that space in the first half of Premier League games.

It's why the clamour for him to be chucked in needs to stop. We're easing him in and I'm sure he'll start against Southampton, but not every game will suit him starting.

Ironically enough, I can see his best games being against the top six clubs. That's when I'd be looking to start him for sure, as he gives us so much pace/compsure on the counter.

Agree with starting against the top 6
We won’t get many breaks/ possession in those games so Bernard has the composure to make the most of those breaks and pick the right pass
 
You godda love the shoots of hope in this forum :) How can you not? The palpable sense of progress and 'top 6' chatter.

Fine souls... literate (mostly), intelligent, worldly-wise, bread-winners, role models, leaders perhaps in our work. And in the wake of an otherwise semi-dismal 6 from 6 and squeezing past some relegation fodder at home (who've pretty much never won at ours in any meaningful timeframe), we're back on here heralding the new dawn and we mean it.

Thank you Bernard, thank you Everton.

COYB.
 

He looks like a proper footballer who wants to get his head up and unlock defences.

Early days but I see nothing but encouraging signs. His stature is a non-issue if he has a turn of pace and knows how to get himself a yard of space.

There are plenty of encouraging signs from our summer business and people need to be patient - this is a transitional season where we won't do much, but we're putting the groundwork in for future seasons where we might just do great things.
 
I never expected such a signing under Moyes later on, but from the moment Martinez took over I've been crying out for a player like this. It's been badly badly needed.

I can't wait to see this guy when fully fit and starting week in week out.

Never mind all this "results business" dull grey attitude. I want entertainment. The beautiful game.

A footballer. An actual real footballer in the final third who can carry the ball, pick a pass and do something a bit different.

Hallelujah
