Although Ancelotti gave him a break for the weekend against United. Yerry is the Colombian who adds the most minutes so far in the 20/21 Premier. His influence within the team puts him as part of the spine they complement Pickford, Keane, Doucoure and Calvert-Lewin. James for the physical part has missed some games and that has diminished his influence within the group.
Yerry Mina accumulates 1,620 minutes with Everton
There are 18 games in which the 26-year-old defender has been. On three occasions he has stayed on the substitute bench and his contribution has been important to solidify the defensive zone in which it cost a little at the beginning due to injuries. Ancelotti has highlighted the physical part of the Colombian in this part of the season, where managed to become one of the most regular couples in England with Keane.
On an offensive level, he already equaled his best goal score with two annotations. This season he did them to Arsenal and Brighton.
James Rodríguez, the second who plays the most minutes
The ’10’ of the Colombian National Team is one of the most important signings for Everton this season. However, the French Doucouré has added more time on the court and managed to establish himself in the middle of the field in the absence of Allan. While, James with 1,202 minutes on the court has missed 6 team games, although he has had to do with 12 goals (5 annotations and 7 assists).
Ancelotti confirmed that he took it out over the weekend as a precaution, as he had a calf problem. “He scored a fantastic goal and I took it out to avoid problems.”
Davinson Sánchez, less than 700 ‘in half a season
The season of the Tottenham center-back is the most discreet he has had since he arrived in Europe. For Premier he has 679 minutes in 9 games, 8 as a starter and has been replaced once. The English press has questioned his performance and claim that he sometimes makes inopportune mistakes, which has also caused him to lose confidence and Alderweireld took advantage of him to play alongside Dier.
Steven Alzate, is regaining prominence in Brighton
The English Colombian has 2 goals in just 9 games played, 6 starting. Although Graham Potter has not taken it into account as in the previous season. Alzate has been important to get definitive points like the ones they added in the victory against Liverpool, precisely with a goal from the player who was already part of the Colombian National Team. 611 minutes so far in 20/21 and with a record that may have had to do with his going to the bank, being one of the players who commits the most fouls.
Ian Poveda, little in Premier, more with the Sub 23 of Leeds
The other English Colombian who plays in England has almost double the number of minutes in the Sub 23 compared to what he has been on the court with Bielsa’s team, because although he has appeared in 10 games, he has not been a starter in any of them and the most he has played is 44 minutes per game, he did so against Leicester and Manchester City. At the beginning of February he was injured with the Sub 23 in an ankle and Bielsa has already warned that he will be out for a couple of weeks.
