Jose said hes healthier now than hes been
I do think something clicked a few weeks ago, when he missed that fa cup everton game
Ever since hes just seemed to be playing with the hand off the emergency break so to speak, it's only 4 games, but he is running at full speed, not avoiding contact, not overthinking every time he gets the ball
The 2nd goal he scored on the weekend was almost a carbon copy of one in the europa league last week, he got a pass at the top of the box, cut in and curled it into the corner of the net, felt like instinct, whereas when he was on the field this year prior he would stop the ball look around and miss his chance
Its playing armchair psychologist, but after 2 years of being injured or hated by his manager, just seemed like hes needed 6 months or so to get back in the headspace
