Kevin Mirallas-Everton– While he might believe it in too much, it’s clear that Mirallas has substantial talent. Given all that talent, you’d expect him to have more than one start on the season for an Everton side that isn’t exactly blowing away its competition.

He has more red cards (1) than Premier League goals on the season and for whatever reason, he just doesn’t seem to be in Roberto Martinez’s plans at the club. Yes, I know he’s said otherwise in the press but I think that’s just posturing to drive up his sales price.

He is just two years removed from an outstanding Premier League season where he contributed nine goals and seven assists. At just 28-years-old you wouldn’t expect him to be past his prime either. It’s very reasonable to think another club could take a chance on him, provide him regular playing time, and get a very nice goal return.

I must reiterate that I think Everton would be wise to hang on to such a talented player. He can contribute goals and to me, he’s the ideal sort to play wide next to Ross Barkley. He might be a little too selfish at times, but I think that’s a price worth paying for most Premier League sides.
