The Brazilian was one of the many contenders in the backline that could have scooped up the Man of the Match award at Goodison Park.
I think he’s won 33 major trophies, the only thing that has evaded him is the Champions League and that might be why he’s not in the bracket of Maldini, Baresi, he is one of the great defenders, a joy to watch. And to be still doing it at this level and looking so calm in what is a fast furious, just so assured." It was an outing from the Brazilian, who turns 38 next month, that drew heavy praise not only from his manager but from the pundits covering the game.
Supporter have praised the performance of Alex Iwobi after Everton lost to Chelsea in the Premier League.
One of the first names on the team sheet for me, 100% effort all of the time and with confidence he's getting better and better in possession.— Peter Mac EFC (@PeterJMacca) pic.twitter.com/nvNpldAWah August 6, 2022 Season holds promise if he finds consistency in terms of minutes.— Solace Chukwu (@TheOddSolace) July 30, 2022 Alex Iwobi is a must stater for me. Needs to improve positioning without the ball to help the team stay compact though. Have to find a place for him every game. Looking forward to an even bigger and better— Rob (@thereal1bert) @alexiwobithis season with more goals like this. Special mention to Alex Iwobi. He was transformed under Frank and was our talisman for the final few months of the last campaign. Best game I’ve seen— Carl Thomas (@CarlthomasSEG) @alexiwobiplay for Everton his movement, energy and passing was superb. Genuinely can't remember a player who has completely changed my opinion of them as much as he has. #EveChe pic.twitter.com/3VX9FKKd7r August 6, 2022 #EveChe pic.twitter.com/49GzX9NOR9 August 6, 2022 Best midfielder on show.

Alli replaced Dwight McNeil on the hour mark in their Premier League opener at Goodison Park on Saturday.
It’s a clean slate on many levels for everybody this season and for Dele for sure. "He has an instinct to get in goalscoring positions, and we need to find ways to get him in those positions and probably give him confidence back as well. That’s the reason I brought him to the club.
The national media react to Everton's 1-0 home defeat to Chelsea on the opening day of the Premier League season.
“This was a season opener in which Jordan Pickford raised a fist to those tens of thousands who now call him captain after he led the team out. As all four sides of Goodison Park rocked with the track in the minutes before kick-off and blue flags glittered in the evening summer sunlight the hope was it would now provide the soundtrack for better things to come. “Last season Spirit of the Blues was the anthem for Everton's escape from relegation. “Everton impressed defensively and in possession yet were toothless in the final third; a surprise to absolutely no-one with not one recognised striker available for the opening day. “Jorginho’s penalty in the seventh minute of first-half stoppage time – necessary because Everton’s Ben Godfrey required prolonged treatment after suffering what was later described as a “small leg fracture” – gave Tuchel’s side a steady, if unspectacular, start. "Maybe it was not the most exciting game in the history of the Premier League," Thomas Tuchel massively under-stated.

New signing Koulibaly was dominant at the back and played a crucial role in the penalty. He found Ben Chilwell inside the Everton box with a pin point pass. The ...
The ball was stuck between the halves.” We didn't maybe want to take the risk in the final 25 metres. Seven minutes of extra time in the first half, ten minutes in the second half tells the story. The left back was subsequently fouled by Toffees’ midfielder Adboulaye Doucoure. Jorginho then calmly dispatched his spot kick, sending Jordan Pickford the wrong way. He found Ben Chilwell inside the Everton box with a pin point pass. Lots of interruptions and no team could find the rhythm.
A first-half penalty from Italy midfielder Jorginho was enough to earn Chelsea a 1-0 win at Everton on Saturday to get their new Premier League campaign ...
It means 18 of Jorginho’s 20 Premier League goals have come from the penalty spot. “We got three points, we got a clean sheet. We are open for improvement and criticism, but there are good things to take away.
A penalty converted by Jorginho at the end of first half injury time was the difference as Chelsea secured an all-important 1-0 victory and clean sheet to kick ...
It’s already abundantly clear to see how much he can improve Chelsea in time with his desire to beat players, low centre of gravity and unrivalled technical ability. Sure, Sterling didn’t set the world alight with a glut of goals. In fact, Chelsea’s opening weekend victory was the first time they’ve won at Goodison Park since 2017.
The Premier League has returned, and it came back with a bang. The league kicked off with a feisty London derby between Crystal Palace and Arsenal at ...
The midfield comprised of Jorginho and N’Golo Kante, which was a bit surprising as it lacked any creativity and that was evident from the get-go. It came to no fruition as the visitors took home all three points in the end, putting an end to the losing streak on the blue half of Merseyside. The Premier League has returned, and it came back with a bang.
