I liked him but don't think Everton at the moment is somewhere he'll thrive.
Inclined to agree. He's the kind of player Moyes would do well with - 'here's your position, here's your job, get at it' being thrown on at 70minutes to 'make a difference' isn't really working for him. You can tell he has ability but he needs a settled team and consitent coaching.
Burnley fans were pretty split on him by the time he left. He came into the team as a really bright, creative player but that seemed to fade as teams realised that a lot of the time he was our only creative player and doubled up on him.
Also only missed two league matches in over 3.5 seasons for us so was probably knackered.
