Everton supporters have been having their say on who the best performer of this season has been at the quarter-season point.
Despite some wobbles, Everton are flying right now and have entered this international break with a three-game winning streak and sitting sixth in the Premier League table. David Moyes has done an excellent job this season while being under-resourced.
The Athletic have listed Jarrad Branthwaite as Everton’s best player this season so far. However, we have asked supporters on the TalkingPoints app who they believe to be the best performer, and the result has been pretty unanimous.
Everton’s band of brothers have rallied after a difficult summer - but who has been their best player this season so far?!

@gramorris if I was Graham I would be saying yo moyes I've been on the bench for the last 5 games I'm not going on lone and I will be going to my agent to get me a transfer to a club that believe in young talent
We are great at telling ourselves how good our team is .a couple of defeats and we could be in the bottom 3 we are a average side lucky win over Coventry. We need more fire power.so let's look at Moylan of Cardiff City knows where the net is and he is young
Harrison Armstrong, for his age and workrate, got to refuse all offers that will surely come.
Everton fans pick player of the season so far
There was a poll on TalkingPoints asking who fans thought had been the best performer of the season so far, and of the three options listed, it wasn’t even up for debate.
Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall | 80 per cent
Thierno Barry | 12 per cent
Jordan Pickford | 3 per cent
Other | 5 per cent
With 80% of the vote from fans, Dewsbury-Hall is the unanimous victor as fans’ pick of player of the season thus far, correct as of November 13th.
The support for Dewsbury-Hall wasn’t just in the poll, but in the comments, there was also resounding support for Everton’s attacking midfielder.
One user, @gramorris, commented on his praise of Dewsbury-Hall, explaining that he has been “lights out recently”, touching on his unstoppable form over the past few weeks.
Dewsbury-Hall’s form has coincided with Everton turning the season around to win three on the bounce, pushing up to sixth in the league table.
Also backing Dewsbury-Hall, @chrisstafford1234 has claimed that he is “one of the best midfielders in the league”, adding that Thomas Tuchel has missed out on Dewsbury-Hall when he deserved a proper chance this season for England.
KDH one of the best midfielders in the League never stops working a great advert for the young Evertonians of the under 21s Tuchel missed out on a gem 💎
@chrisstafford1234 also added his praise that Dewsbury-Hall never stops working. Which @waltonl4 agreed with, writing that, “KDH gives everything and has been superb lately”.
Continuing, “I feel bad for him not getting into the England team, but he won’t be liable to get any injuries with them either! The whole team seems better when KDH & others are in top form, more to come, I hope! UTFT”

While not being recognised internationally, it is crystal clear that the Evertonians are massively fond of Dewsbury-Hall and the form he is showcasing this season for the Toffees.
@kevinbertie issued his praise for Dewsbury-Hall, describing him as a titan. “Overwhelmingly KDH, £28,000,000,000, If ← this means million then that’s a steal; if it means billions, maybe that’s what he’s worth to Everton at this moment in time absolute titan in the midfield. UTFT.”

The overwhelming sentiment is behind Dewsbury-Hall being Everton’s player of the season to this point. However, there is also a concern that he needs to continue showing it, having struggled earlier in the campaign.
A player of Dewsbury-Hall’s brilliance doesn’t come around all that often, so Everton needs to cherish this and also continue to build around him.
Now the only question is whether he can keep this up for the next three quarters of the season. If he does, then it might be one for the ages.
