Joe Hart speaking on The Overlap Daily
Joe Hart speaking on The Overlap Daily
Joe Hart and Ashley Young are in agreement that one Everton player is standing out more than any other right now.
Thierno Barry may have received the plaudits against Newcastle United on Monday, but he was not the best player on the field.
Plenty of others caught the eye, including the energetic Merlin Rohl, the now-reliable Vitalii Mykolenko and the consistent Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall.
With a number of players stepping up, Everton came away from St James' Park with a deserved 1-0 victory.
But there is one player who is looking in the best form of his career right now.
And two-time Premier League title winner Joe Hart believes he is good enough to be part of any team.
Who's the Everton player Joe Hart 'loves'?
Hart was reviewing Everton's win over Newcastle on Tuesday's The Overlap Daily alongside ex-Toffee Young.
Hart was really impressed by what he saw from Everton - as was Young - with the pair picking out Dewsbury-Hall for particular praise.
Dewsbury-Hall really was superb against Newcastle, leading to calls for him to be part of England's upcoming squad.
"Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall last night - I love him as a player," Hart said. "I'd want him in my team every time.
"He's never-ending energy and he'll do the work that needs to be done. Last night, he led the team so well."
Young interjected with: "He's been a sensation since he joined."
Is there any Everton player close to Dewsbury-Hall right now?
Evertonians can surely agree that KDH has been superb once again this season.
Barry deserves praise for the way he regularly puts setbacks behind him to score on a now-consistent basis.
James Tarkowski and Jarrad Branthwaite have also been superb pretty much throughout.
But Dewsbury-Hall pulls the strings and is the oil in the engine room that keeps this side ticking over.
These performances will bring the inevitable exit speculation, but he is under contract until 2030 and there is no need to cash in.
Long may the displays continue as Everton look to finally break back into Europe.
