Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall is the special guest on Monday Night Football tonight, and the Everton star further proved what a confident individual he is.
Fresh from scoring at the weekend, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall is on hand to provide insight and analysis for the Manchester United versus Brentford game.
It makes a change for Dewsbury-Hall to be in a studio and not on a pitch, with Everton having played six times on a Monday night this term.
Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall is one of the best signings Everton have made in years, isn’t he?!
Not only does he have great final third output, but he's got the work-rate to boot 🔥

But it will be back to normal next week, as Dewsbury-Hall and Everton host Manchester City at Hill Dickinson Stadium, in their seventh and final Monday night game of the season.
Hopefully he can be influential, and given his opening remark tonight, he’ll surely back himself.

Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall’s refreshing confidence on full display on Monday Night Football
Dewsbury-Hall really has been brilliant this season.
He cost a fair whack at £28 million, but that fee is now looking a total bargain.
Dewsbury-Hall has been a regular source of goals and assists for Everton, and in total so far he’s had 14 in 27 Premier League games, which is a superb return.
His work-rate has always been praised and earlier in the season Dewsbury-Hall was revealed to have made the most ‘pressures’ for Everton.
He’s been a top signing – and the midfielder suggested tonight that he always backed himself to do well for Everton after transferring.
Asked if he was ‘surprised’ by the season he’s had, he said on Monday Night Football: “Nah! To be fair, I had a lot of ambitions coming into this year. Obviously joining a new club, a new chapter in my career.
“It’s just been amazing to be playing regular football again and contribute to the team by scoring some nice goals and getting some assists.
“I’ve been happy with how it’s gone so far and I’m hoping we can end it strongly.”
It was a fair question from presenter Dave Jones, because Dewsbury-Hall had previously not scored or assisted very often for Chelsea and Leicester City.
For Leicester he got 17 goals and 20 assists in 129 matches, with most of those coming in the 2023/24 season. And for Chelsea he managed five and four in 36.
Jamie Carragher recently admitted Dewsbury-Hall surprised him by playing further forward at Everton, and the decision by David Moyes to do that has been a smart one indeed.
