Everton U21s beat Watford in the final minute of extra time with a brilliant diving header from Braiden Graham

Please say that isn't true.

Surely Braiden has earned some minutes in the first team before the end of the season.

Get him on the weights pre-season and he could be the new Tony Cottee.

And, the other side of the coin, Mr Moyes, is Barry prepared?

I beg to differ and hopefully the lad will get a few minutes to appear in the first team this season -- and possibly he will answer that question with his feet or his head.

“Kingsford [Boakye] put a great ball in and it was just asking to be headed in and Braiden was there,” Tait told the Everton website.

“Braiden was outstanding and did some excellent things. He just keeps going because he's got that fire in his belly and the determination.”

But don't tell that to the Supreme Leader. He ain't for changing the rigid dogma.

I think Moyes is right saying Braiden is not ready just yet, as his physicality is not there for the Prem, but you can bet behind the scenes they will be working on it.

Move on to a pre season and training with the first team and we will see what he can do.

Moyes will be hoping that the player makes his progress, which hopefully means him going on loan to the Championship with a view to getting him "oven" ready " for the first team.

Only after this step up will we know that we really have a gem for first team football, its a massive step up but he has plenty of time lets not forget that.

We don't want a young player knocked about in the Prem and given a bad injury, he needs to be carefully nurtured and managed to reach his potential.

Throwing him in at the deep end when fans and the team are desperate for wins is not the way, is it?

Having him on the bench would be good; if we are comfortable in any games, give him a run out.

Putting pressure on him now could ruin all his confidence.

I've just answered another fan on another website who was saying the same as yourself.

I told him Dobbin was about the same size, weight and age as Braiden when Everton played Chelsea at Stamford Bridge and he came on for the second half in place of Simms. We drew that game 1-1 when we were in trouble in the league.

I think Dobbin got the free-kick which Gordon took and Branthwaite nodded it home. How old were those three players then? Another youngster came on for the last 10 mins.

The manager was the man hardly any fan wanted — Benitez!

I know some people won't appreciate the name being used here but Braiden Graham is more like Robbie Fowler than any Everton striker I've seen play, and that means he could get goals for us if used in the right way and right now is probably when he should be being slowly introduced.

He's not ultra rapid (he's quick enough) and so he isn't just starring at U21 level because he's a one-trick pony.

Two really nice goals again last night. First one he showed great instincts to angle his run to create space for a ball to be played to his feet so that, with a superb first touch, he took out two covering defenders and set himself up for a lovely finish the goalie had no chance of saving.

His second required a lovely cross but again his instincts and intelligent run put him between the defenders and his header was almost faultless and unstoppable even though the keeper got something of it.

He's good on the ball and his passing is accurate. Ideally I would like to see him filled out a bit before I would expect him to be tussling with Premier League players, but 10-20 minutes in games that are opened out could see his reputation really blossom.

Shea Pita is only just 17 I think and although quite raw has looked very bright and threatening in the recent games I've seen. Also good to see Joel Catesby back and looking healthy, although the end of the season probably arriving too soon for him to be firing on all cylinders.
