Everton captain Seamus Coleman has hailed the arrival of defensive pair James Tarkowski and Conor Coady.
For Coleman, signing a player of Tarkowski’s ability, confidence and temperament is evidence of the Club recruiting smartly and moving in the right direction.
“It feels like a different dressing room this season,” says Coleman. “We’ve got a great group.
“James is a big part of that. He’s been unbelievable since he came in. He’s a great player and he’s a great character, too.
“It’s hard to mention James without mentioning Conor Coady in the same breath. Again, he’s such an infectious person – he’s so full of life, full of personality and enthusiasm all the time.
“We’ve learned a lot from last season and the manager is trying to build his own philosophy and his own standards around the building.
“Slowly but surely, I believe it will all come together.”
