However, along with a celebration of his aerial ability, Keown was also quick to♌ praise Tarkow𓄧ski’s passing range.

Tarkowski played an excellent long pass to assist Abdoulaye Doucoure in the first half, and was𓆏 spot on with his passing all day.

: “So dominant, he [James Tarkowski] really is.

“And [Jarrad] Branthwaite next to him just frees him up a little 🐼bit to really dominate.

“He’s a player I’ve always liked in terms of his ability 🌳and the way that he dominates.”

Speaking about Tarkowski’s Everton assist Keown ad꧅ded: “And he’s got🎐 this in his locker as well, a nice little chip in here, lovely weight on it.”

Whilst a typical Sean Dyche centre-back may not often bℱe praised for their passing, Tarkowski clea🦂rly has the attributes.

Moreover, it ♍shouldn’t be too s🌌urprising given that Tarkowski has previously been in the England squad.

Keown was so impressed by Tarkowski’s passing for Everton

Whilst Keown reserved special praise for Tarkowski, he really could have aim𒉰ed it at several Everton players.

Abdoulaye Doucoure, James Garner and Dwight McNeil were all brilliant as well.

And a strong♌ Everton performance will prove very timely♏ for Sean Dyche and the club’s fans.

Stats have suggested that Everton were unfortunately to have endured such a slow sta♏rt to the season, but that is already on the way to being rectifie♉d.

And as Keown’s praise suggests, there are still several Everton players including Tarkowski that have further po🏅tential to deliver.

Everton’s next league game is against Luton Town at Goodison Park, and 🍷all connected with the club will hope they can continue their good performance.
