Is the implication here that Everton is Barcelona quality?
As for the injury, he had about 340 minutes in December at the time of the injury - even then it was illogical how little he was being used
Yeah, there can be so many reasons for that? his quality is there for everyone to see, his goal against Arsenal was top class. You wont see many better goals this season.
He only young and has to put the work in behind the scenes as well as on the pitch
He needed time to get with the pace of our league
He wasn't helping the team at first, but you can see the improvements now
He was playing for himself and not for the team at the start.
He was making no impact in his the first couple of months.
There could be so many reasons why he not played as much, but my theory is Martinez bedded him in slowly and then injury struck.
