An examination of the numbers that show Jarrad Branthwaite's return had Everton's defence playing in a new way at West Ham United
Everton must hope that the pelvic issue that forced Jarrad Branthwaite to withdraw from the England squad this week is not severe as they hope to keep their most valuable player in the side for the visit of Brentford next Saturday because he not only improves the side with his presence but changes the way his team-mates play.
Branthwaite was also above par for several key defensive contributions as he made 10 ball recoveries ; 6 interceptions ; 4 clearances ; and 5 picking-ups , when a player wins a loose ball. However, as also observed, Branthwaite’s presence helps those alongside him, with Vitalii Mykolenko to his left, and James Tarkowski to his right.
