Must admit after being unsure about him, he has certainly impressed me. Even if the end product isn't always perfect he does work hard. When I asked a couple of months ago a few spurs fans said he was a hard worker and helped his full back. I had never noticed that side of his game when he played against us. Do you think we will make his loan deal permanent?

I certainly hope so.
He has been very impressive in all areas of his game.
He has certainly changed my first impressions of him.

I can't imagine there is an Everton fan who hasn't had his opinion of Lennon changed. I can only imagine that he is one of the first names on Martinez's team sheet.

Fully aree with all three comments above, I was very against his move and was not that impressed with his first outing.
However his workrate and attacking threat have been great. Also the defensive side of his game has allowed Coleman to get forward safe in the knowledge he has cover from teh overlap.

Spot on, it's clear to see Coleman regaining some confidence and playing better since he's had Lennon in front of him.

Very few of our fans rate him these days, but I think too many get bogged down in stats. He doesn't score as many as he should do, but his all round contribution to a side is fantastic.
Pienaar was never taken to at our place either, but again that's ignorance of what he brings when he plays - very similar to Lennon in that regard.
As mentioned, Coleman will absolutely love having Lennon playing in front of him. He is so quick over that first 10yds that teams have to compensate for that, and that in turn stretches teams and let's others have space

Spot on, like Barry. You never realise what he brings until he is in your team.

What about the dynamism when Mirralas is on the left and Lennon on the right even Utd took a backward step despite all their possession prior to Mirralas coming on.
