A lot of praise for garn and mainoo and rightly so!
I want to give a big pat on the back to Onana, a lot on here joined the pile on few weeks back along with every journalist and media outlet but the guy has showed a bit of character, produced good performances, big saves and won us big points! All while playing with a back four that has had zero continuity and consistency!
Good on him!

I was dubious that Mainoo was going to be up to Matthaus / Makelele levels everyone was building him up to, but what a great start for him, and for one so young in a position players generally grow into over time. A breath of fresh air.

Mainoo was a breath of fresh air yesterday, he showed such composure to make space for himself with the ball, as well as doing the hard work of tracking back and being a nuisance.
Also really good to see Luke Shaw back from injury, let's hope we can start to build some real momentum, especially with the tough run of fixtures coming up.

Mainoo is so calm and Football IQ of a much older player. The position he played is one of the most difficult positions to play in and why so many top teams even now are always looking for that one player who can play a proper 6.
Lets hope Martinez gets on grass soon as he will be immense and take things up another notch.

Let us all hope that we can keep him.

Great to get the win and actually score some goals even though not a great performance but win is a win.
but the team sheet says more about how poor ETH buys/ Loans have really been, with virtually all of them on the bench and not in the team!
If I were SJR or even the Glazers I would not give ETH another bean to spend it’s quite disgraceful, I’ve said all along that what we had (and they not great) but they were better then the ones that come in!

Mainoo was by far the best player on that pitch yesterday.
Apart from the goal Garnacho didn't really do anything else.
The performance as a whole was bloody dreadful.
We don't seem to be able to string more than 5 passes together in the midfield. Players not controlling the ball, Passas going astray and not hitting the targets. It was dreadful to watch.
Don't get me wrong a win is a win but what kind of football is Ten Hag trying to play? What kind of style are we playing? . Are we pressing or are we counter attacking? .
This is the worst football i have watched since Fergie left, it's absolutely dire!

Rangers or whatever your called this week
Hoijland Mount malacia Erickson Martinez Casemiro injured
Reguillon Evans loan signings at the death to cover injuries
Hats off too to ETH or the club for not going out and wasting money on a 6 like amrabat and only loaning him because they trust mainoo!
The win looks even better with that list of absentees!

The first 15 mins yesterday is the style of football EtH is trying to play. We dominated the ball and you could see a progressive shape with Dalot pushed well forward, producing the inside run for THAT goal.
Around minute 12 to 15 Everton started to be more aggressive and to press S they realised that is was McGuire and Lindelof at the back and not Nesta and Maldini.
Mainoo is firmly in EtH plans, he was a feature of the tour and no chance EtH is not going to bring him into the first team. To watch the guy is to see his potential. He has a long way to go yet though.

If your good enough you should play regardless of your age.
I seen more from Mainoo in 70 minutes than Mctominay over the past 5 years.
