Analysis from Connor O’Neill after Everton beat Burnley 3-0 at Goodison Park to progress into the quarter-finals of the Carabao Cup.

Arnaut Danjuma fails to take chance

When Arnaut Danjuma finally joined Everton during the summer transfer window, there was plenty of excitement around the signing. After all, this was a player the Blues tried to bring to the club last January, but, as we all know, he produced a last-minute U-turn and went to Tottenham Hotspur instead.

Danjuma went on to find his game time limited in the capital. So when he arrived at Goodison Park during the summer, he came with a point to prove. The opportunity to show just how good he is.

And the initial signs were promising. A goal against Sheffield United before the September international break capped off an impressive run of games. However, since then, the forward has found his game time limited. He has started just two of the seven games Everton have played since the resumption of play following that international break.
