I thought Amadou Onana was hiding against West Ham - Everton need more than hand gestures

The West Ham United game was an opportunity for Amadou Onana to dictate the play for Everton but he looked to me like he was hiding.

When he came on against Manchester City, he knew the world was watching him, he was up against the best team in the world and he wanted the ball. Onana wanted to showcase his ability at the Etihad Stadium but I didn’t see any of that against West Ham United side who were much lesser opposition.

Yes he showed for the ball but he wasn’t proactive enough. There were no forward passes or running with the ball 10 or 15 yards to break the line of that midfield.

I was not surprised by moment that led to Everton goal - Sean Dyche is not making the most of his resources

West Ham weren’t trying to press Everton, they haven’t got players like Idrissa Gueye who trying and nick the ball off you in midfield, hurry and harass you. They were sat in their formation and you just hope that Onana could grab the game by the scruff of the neck and show his quality and try and pass the ball in between the lines to cause issues.

We need more from players like him in these moments. You’re at Goodison Park in front of your fans, you’re putting your hands up to try and get the crowd going but you need to start showing us a bit more by doing your job by showing that effort, staying on your feet and marking your man properly.

When you are on the ball, show your quality a bit more. He doesn’t do enough.

The frustrations at Goodison Park continue with Sean Dyche needing to find a way to get the best out of it, we’ve now got a wait of over a month until we’re back playing at home with a hat-trick of away matches. Maybe it suits this Dyche team a bit
