Everton made it three wins on the bounce last weekend against Coventry with Thierno Barry scoring twice, but another player may have been even more impressive.

Everything around Everton is thriving right now. David Moyes has hit a winning formula, has the Toffees inside the top half, and is on a three-game win streak.

Thierno Barry has been shining for Everton as he hit double figures across all competitions and six in six this season, vindicating all the faith and patience he has been shown recently.

But Everton might have an even more impressive performer, according to legendary Merseyside reporter and Toffee John Keith.

John Keith hails Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall for performance vs Coventry

“The second half performance by Everton was superb, and although Barry gets a lot of credit, as he should, for his goals”, Keith explained before admitting it was Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall he was really enthralled by.

“I thought Dewsbury-Hall was magnificent. I think he’s a wonderful player. He’s not just good in one game; he’s consistently good. His performance level is very high, and I was very impressed with him.”

Dewsbury-Hall has been excellent this season for Everton, really taking his game up another level and becoming one of the most popular players at the club right now, embodying the fans, and his celebration against Coventry showed what his goal meant to him.

The timing of this performance also felt like a statement to Thomas Tuchel, who snubbed Dewsbury-Hall from his squad. This, despite Tuchel admitting he likes Dewsbury-Hall and is impressed by his form.

John Keith also praised Thierno Barry for Everton

While Dewsbury-Hall is the name on everyone’s lips right now for his brilliance, Barry is also deserving of praise as he continues to prove everyone wrong by scoring on a very regular basis.

“Barry has discovered the art of scoring goals, which I had thought he lost”, Keith admitted after his Dewsbury-Hall compliments, which sounds like a back-handed bit of praise, but is true.

Barry had been missing record numbers of chances and sat as the least clinical striker in the league, but has quickly rid those conversations with the goals now beginning to flow.

Improvements are still needed, and he can still take more of the chances that are coming his way, but at 23, this is a very strong striker in the works at Everton, and he deserves every bit of patience.
