‘My gut tells me’ – Sean Dyche says Everton ace has impressed him

Sean Dyche could be tempted to start with Armando Broja when Everton face Arsenal in the Premier League at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday.

The 23-year-old striker joined the Toffees from Chelsea on loan last summer and made his first appearance after coming off the bench in the 4-0 win against Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Broja was struggling with a foot injury since he joined and only returned to training this month.

Dyche has watched Broja closely in training, and he is very impressed with what he saw.

“So that’s where we’re at the moment with him in his development. said Dyche, as quoted by the Liverpool Echo.

“From what my gut tells me and my instinct tells me from what I’m seeing, he’s got a chance to mould himself into many different things,”

“Because he’s got a good presence, but he is quick, he can play, I love his hold-up play and his understanding.

“His defending play, like a lot of centre-forwards, needs work because in the Premier League, you’ve got to defend from the front.

“They’re all important facts of the modern striker. So he certainly can develop that side of things.

“But the other side of his game, some of it is natural development and let’s see where it takes him.”

Broja could be a key player for Everton

Broja is determined to become a regular Premier League striker after failing to make an impact at Chelsea.

He is hungry to prove a point, and Everton can provide him the necessary platform to shine. He was impressive in the cameo role against Wolves, and the club expect more from him.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin has been the first-choice striker for the Toffees, but he has failed to find the net since the 3-2 defeat at Aston Villa in September.

Dyche also doesn’t seem to trust Beto, which means Broja could lead the line if the club feels he is now physically ready to start a game.

Everton have failed to score in their three previous away matches at Southampton, West Ham United and Manchester United, and they need a strong performance today.
