Supporters of Everton have aired that they are still hopeful that Anthony Gordon will be given his first-team chance with the Toffees soon.
On Thursday evening, the youngster posted a picture to Twitter of himself training with the first team and engaged in a race with a number of the starting lineup (as per Anthony Gordon).
Seeing the 18-year-old attacker intertwined in the first-team set-up sparked a response from the Goodison Park faithful airing their wishes to see Gordon feature soon.

Should Anthony Gordon have been given a greater first-team chance by now?Yes, it's taking far too longNo, strong preparation is vital |
The £1.35-million rated man has featured on only one occasion for the Toffees, in a Europa League clash with Cypriot side Apollon Limassol in 2017 as a late substitute for Kevin Mirallas (as per BBC).
With his second appearance and league debut for the Toffees hotly anticipated (via Liverpool Echo), some believed it to be just around the corner for the 18-year-old.
Keep going @anthonygordon59

What do we think?
There is a great amount of hype surrounding Gordon in the blue half of Merseyside, hopefully, when the time comes for his league debut he will be afforded the time to live up to his billing.
