Former Tottenham and Leeds United goalkeeper Paul Robinson has praised Everton’s Iliman Ndiaye, stating that he would get into the Manchester City team ahead of stars like Jeremy Doku and Savinho.
Ndiaye’s impressive performance against Manchester City, which included a stunning equalizing goal, has earned him widespread praise. Robinson, speaking on BBC Radio 5 Live, said: “Everton have a player in Iliman Ndiaye who would get in the Manchester City team, he is that good… Today, he would get in over Savinho and Jeremy Doku.”
Ndiaye’s goal cancelled out Bernardo Silva’s opener, and Everton went on to secure a credible 1-1 draw against the champions. The result was a testament to Everton’s growing confidence, which has been boosted by their recent performances against top-four teams like Arsenal and Chelsea.
Everton’s manager, Sean Dyche, will be pleased with his team’s display, and the result will have given the Toffees a significant boost ahead of their upcoming fixtures against Nottingham Forest and Bournemouth. With players like Ndiaye in top form, Everton will be looking to continue their good run of form and push further up the Premier League table.
Ndiaye’s performance was not the only positive takeaway from the match for Everton. The team’s defensive solidity and organization were also impressive, with goalkeeper Jordan Pickford making several crucial saves, including a penalty stop from Erling Haaland.
Everton’s ability to compete with the top teams in the league is a significant improvement from last season, and the team’s fans will be hoping that this form can be sustained throughout the remainder of the season.
In other news, Everton is reportedly interested in making another signing from Lyon this winter, and the club will be looking to navigate the January transfer window unscathed. The Toffees have already been linked with several players, and it remains to be seen whether they will make any significant signings during the transfer window.
Overall, Everton’s draw against Manchester City was a impressive result, and the team’s fans will be hoping that this form can be sustained throughout the remainder of the season. With players like Ndiaye in top form, Everton will be looking to continue their good run of form and push further up the Premier League table.
