Kevin Mirallas

[daz4matty]

Tidy enough first half but as you say can only really do it for a few minutes against poor defences. Useful enough squad player but we can afford more than a flat track bully now

Give him a chance man before you slaughter him.
He has only had bit parts this season

A run in the team is what he needs and he will come alive

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Kevin Mirallas.

Everton: 25 goals for 16 against in 13 starts, 9 subs appearance for the Belgian boss

Everton: 24 for 20 goals with Cleverley on the pitch, in 15 starts 3 subs appearances

Godspeed all. Godspeed.

2 fantastic assists this evening. Needs more games and more minutes though.

Was impressed with him tonight but it was a kind of typical Kev performance.

Quality delivery for the corner and a superb cross for Lennon's goal, but then did nothing. Had a great 10 minutes at the beginning of the second half but we sat too deep after that and he is really only affective in the final third. So kind of a combination of both.

Unlucky not to score with that volley at the end.

Pretty sure Cleverley will - if fit - start at the weekend, mainly down to Antonio playing right back for W.Ham as Byram is banned for them. We will need somebody to track back, but Kev should definitely get a run out in that game either as a sub or as a starter. Basically, I don't mid either way if he starts or not.

You were impressed with him tonight?

Barkley - 6 - pretty quiet but still made some great runs from midfield
Mirallas - 6 - great corner and a lovely ball for Lennon's goal. Unlucky not to score with that volley at the end.
Lukaku - 6 - another game, another goal. Not at his best but did the job when it mattered.

And you've given him the same rating as Barkley, who I'm a massive fan of but stunk the place out.

Come on mate, what you really mean is that you are a sane, rational person who quite rightly has no idea why people were trying to defend Cleverley being in over Mirallas at anytime this season.

Had a great 1st half, second half faded out the game. Wasn't helped by the fact that the defence and midfield were loosing control of the ball constantly.We could hardly string two passes together all evening.

Another stellar performance from Kev.

Sniff it h8ers.

Fair summing up and hard to judge performances against a team not marking anyone.
Quite a few just disappeared second half so maybe not fair to just single him out.

Shame he'll be dropped instantly when Cleverley is back from illness.

Yeh I was impressed in that he had a few good (very good) moments but he just drifts in and out of games so much.

I also qualified that with that it is a reflection of how deep we were defending as well.

As I said, I'd happily see Kev start, but at the same time I don't mind Cleverley starting. It's horses for courses and Mirallas today suited our style a lot more than Cleverley would.

West Ham may be a different matter, though then again it may not.
