Brilliant article. Remember him as clear as day, being absolutely made up when he bagged that goal against Chelsea.

I guess shows how good a job Moyes done, finished 7th when our first choice striker managed just two goals all season.
Tbf he was only first choice for 6 months, he couldn't have wished for a more negative set up to play in though, was some of the worst 6 months of football I've seen from an Everton side in a long time and credit to Denis his sheer effort at times dragged us through a few games, then we made some good signings in January and it completely changed the season.
 
Our fans have issues if Denis Stracqualursi is a cult hero, he only played a handful of games and he was complete gash.
 
It wasn’t about his ability mate, it was about his sheer willpower to overcome his lack of technical ability and his determination to grasp the opportunity he’d been given.
Not really the type of player a PL club should have anywhere near the squad.
 
He gave 100% every game despite clearly being a awful player, He could have just been gash and didn't even bother trying but it was clear as day he tried every game so he gets my respect for that.
 
To be fair to the lad, he could play a bit aswell. I mean, you wouldn’t want him back obviously, but he wasn’t totally out of his depth. As a target man he wasn’t too shabby, he just had no mobility.
