JUST a few weeks ago, merely the notion of an Everton defender thriving in the world of Dream Team would have been laughable.<\/p>\n

Now it's a reality.<\/p>\n

Vitaliy Mykolenko (\u00a32.7m) entered the top ten assets in his position this weekend with a 10-point return at Brighton's expense.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Toffees' left-back would have risen to joint-sixth had his side held on for a win over the Seagulls but Ashley Young's (\u00a31.9m) late own goal meant even honours at Goodison Park on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Mykolenko gave his side the lead early on when his strike deflected in off Lewis Dunk (\u00a32.5m) and he played his part in a classic rearguard before the visitors eventually broke through with a slice of good fortune.<\/p>\n

While the Ukraine international would have been disappointed with the result having led for so long, he continued his impressive turnaround in the world of Dream Team.<\/p>\n

By the end of Gameweek 6, Mykolenko had just 16 points to his name.<\/p>\n

However, after an upturn in form, emphasised by a burst of 40 points across the last four Gameweeks, he now boasts an overall total of 62.<\/p>\n

Incredibly, he's now above the likes of Kyle Walker (\u00a33.5m), Virgil van Dijk (\u00a34.5m) and Gabriel (\u00a34.1m) in the rankings.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Not that many Dream Team gaffers have benefited from this purple patch.<\/p>\n

Everton's No19 currently features in just 0.1% of teams.<\/p>\n

For perspective, he's less popular than Daniel Sassi (\u00a31m), Toti (\u00a31.9m) and Ameen Al-Dakhil (\u00a30.8m) – if those names don't ring a bell, that's the point!<\/p>\n

Mykolenko's lowly ownership is understandable as it wasn't that long ago Everton looked as if they would spend the entire campaign battling relegation.<\/p>\n

Sean Dyche's side remain 16th even now but they do seem to have turned a corner of late.<\/p>\n

Defeat in the Merseyside derby at Anfield is their only loss in five games since the start of October – a run that includes three victories and three clean sheets.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

What's particularly notable about Mykolenko's recent success is his extraordinary tackle rate.<\/p>\n

The 24-year-old has registered 37 tackles this season, the highest tally among defenders and fourth-highest among all players.<\/p>\n

17 of his 62 points (27.4%) have come through tackles.<\/p>\n

Whether gaffers should be rushing to recruit Mykolenko is another conversation entirely but he deserves huge credit for his recent efforts.<\/p>\n
