Everton fans have encouraged Anthony Gordon that first-team involvement is just around the corner for the youngster.
The Toffees’ 18-year-old attacker is highly-rated at Goodison Park, and while not yet on the receiving end of many first-team minutes, is tipped to come good in the future (as per Liverpool Echo).
Following the youngster’s latest post to Twitter, training at Finch Farm (via Anthony Gordon), many were full of encouragement for the young Englishman.

The 18-year-old made his debut for the Toffees in late 2017, coming on as an 88th-minute substitute for Kevin Mirallas in the Europa League (as per Liverpool Echo).
With the Merseyside club facing Leicester City on Sunday, some predicted a possible chance for the youngster against the Foxes.
I’d chuck him in at the weekend and let him run free !!!

With pressure mounting on Everton boss (per BBC), Marco Silva, one supporter even suggested that he was the cause of Gordon’s lack of minutes and that will be resolved before long.
Keep going mate. When we replace this manager you will be in

What do we think?
There is no smoke without fire and the 18-year-old must have talent due to how highly rated he is (per Liverpool Echo), meaning it must only be a matter of time until he is introduced.
Although, he may have to wait until Silva potentially departs as he’s yet to make an appearance in the first-team in the current campaign. And, Silva may not want to take a risk on him with things how they are.
