Jake O’Brien. was hailed by Everton as one of Europe's most promising defenders when he arrived in the summer but, on Monday night, he was representing the U21s in his search for a game
News of the breakthrough emerged as Everton were in Salford. It was a pre-season fixture that ended in defeat but was tinged with hope. One young Blue, Youssef Chermiti, continued his good start to the summer by winning a dangerous free-kick minutes after his introduction. James Garner scored from it . Harrison Armstrong, the 17-year-old who has since made his Premier League debut and earned an England call-up, stepped into senior football for the first time .
Dyche persisted with Keane alongside James Tarkowski even as Everton shipped 13 goals across four defeats at the start of the season. At Leicester City, Dyche chose to persist with Tarkowski, whose training was being handled carefully due to injury, and Keane, who had a dead leg, rather than turn to O’Brien. The towering goalscoring centre-back's only minutes in the Premier League have so far been in a cameo at Aston Villa, despite Everton struggling to defend set-pieces and score from them.
