The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Belgium-c2850 International signed for the Merseyside club from the Greek side, Olympiakos, for a 5.3 million pounds transfer fee.
After having spent a successful two year stint with the Legend, the 24-year old is now displaying his prowess in the Premier League.
In only his 7 appearances so far for the Toffees, he has already notched up 3 goals and enjoys the confidence of his manager, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-c10409 Moyes, for a place in the starting-eleven.
Having won the plaudits of Moyes and his team-mates over his remarkable start to Goodison Park career, Mirallas attributed it to the support that he has received from Jelavic.
He explained that he has developed a good chemistry with the Croatian International in the frontline, and the striker’s remarkable conversion rate took a lot of pressure off him.
“I know exactly where he wants the ball, in front of him and into space. That’s how I created one of the goals. Playing alongside a striker like that is a massive help,” he told the reporters in an interview.
Mirallas used to play as a left-winger for Olympiakos and wreaked havoc with defences operating at that position.
However, he has been involved in a different role by Moyes, as the position on the left is currently inhabited by Steven Pienaar.
Instead, the Scott prefers to play him at the right wing.
The forward, however, had no problems with his new duties.
In fact, he unravelled his satisfaction over his current job, and feels that his manager is right in deploying the veteran Pienaar on the left side.
“I spent a lot of the time playing on the left-hand side of attack last year, more attack than midfield. But we all know that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Job-c18684 down that side. The manager is lining me up on the right side at the moment but I feel very
comfortable out there also,” he added.
The winger was the leading goal scorer in the Super http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Greece-c2908 League last season.
