Ancelotti backed to get best out of Everton loanee Bolasie

Former Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Paul Robinson thinks Everton manager Carlo Ancelotti can get Yannick Bolasie to perform at the best of his ability.

Bolasie moved to the Merseyside from Crystal Palace in the summer of 2016, but he struggled to make an impact, scoring just two goals in 32 appearances for the Toffees across all competitions.

A torn anterior cruciate ligament against Manchester United in December 2016 ruled Bolasie out of action for over a year, and he found it difficult to settle into the first-team afterwards.
