Everton midfielder, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Nikica-Jelavic-c27906 is the one of the best anticipators of the ball, and hailed his scintillating start to the season.
The Croatian International, who was signed by the Toffees in January from Glasgow Rangers, has already notched up 4 scalps in his 7 appearances this term.
He fired a goal during his team’s visit of Wigan Athletic on Saturday, to help them secure a 2-2 draw and take his overall tally to 15 goals in 23 caps for the Merseyside outfit.
Jelavic was one of the signings of the prevenient season. He played a massive role in the Toffees upsurge since the turn of the year, wining the Premier League Player of the Month accolade in April.
After seeing the striker continuing from where he left off this term, Osman praised the clinical traits of Jelavic in front of the goal.
He said that there were a lot of quality strikers in the Premier League, but what distinguished Jelavic from the rest was his ability to get into goal scoring positions.
“He finds himself in the right position which is vital if you're a striker,” the midfielder told the reporters in an interview.
“Some strikers can be great at finishing but might not find themselves where the ball lands. Thankfully for us Jela's got that knack and we hope he keeps it up.”
The draw on Saturday at the DW Stadium allowed http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-c10409 Moyes’ unit to occupy the fourth spot in the current league standings.
Commenting on the game, the English International opined that it could have gone either way.
However, he expressed his disappointment over seeing them fail to run away with the honours, but was, nevertheless, satisfied with the point they got from the match.
“There were plenty of chances at both ends of the pitch to be honest so it was probably a good game for the neutral. We're probably a little bit disappointed we didn't win it but we didn't get beat and that was important,” he added.
