Tottenham supporters endured yet another miserable afternoon following their team, however, they will leave Goodison Park with a small glimmer of hope following Mikey Moore’s cameo.

For Ange Postecoglou at Tottenham Hotspur♚, the end is nigh, but for Moore, his journey is only just getting started as the teenager registered his first-ever Premier League goal contribution.

🃏The winger was brought on at 3-0 down and whilst he ended up on the losing side, he reduced the deficit to 3-2 with two assists, one pending confirmation.

It was almost a changing of the guard moment for the North London club as Son Heung-minﷺ was shown up by the 17-year-old in just 17 minutes of action.

Tottenham fans call for Mikey Moore to start over Heung-min Son

Spurs fans are calling for Mikey Moore🧸 to start over Son in their next few matches as the teenager really impressed in a shocking team performance from the visitors.

♉Unfortunately for the South Korean, he was once again well off the pace even against a struggling Everton side as he spurned several chances.

When Moore entered the pitch he breathed a new lease of life into the team as he looked to run at the Everton🐎 defence and produced some wicked deliveries and the Tottenham faithful have reacted.

🅷One fan said: “Mikey Moore has to be starting. He offers loads more than Son and any other attacking option.”

💟Another supporter claimed: “Micky Moore is always at the back post to pick up the loose ball. Son is never there when he should be.”

♉There was yet more praise for Moore: “Mikey Moore, captain material. give him the armband right now. I’d prefer it over Son or Maddison if I’m being completely honest.”

☂“Son needs to step down. Ange is afraid to drop him for Mikey Moore, an 18-year-old because he’s club captain,” stated another supporter.
