Everton captain Phil Neville believes Tim Cahill will go down as a Blues legend.
The Australian scored the Blues' winner at Blackburn on Saturday, taking his recent tally to three in just two games.
"People earlier in the season were writing Tim off but I saw the effort that he was putting in," Neville told evertontv. "The fact that he was playing out of position then but he was still fighting and cajoling the lads shows his spirit.
"He took the captaincy in probably our worst run as a team but he carried the fight then for the whole of the team. I think that took its toll for a bit but now I think you are seeing the real Tim Cahill."
Neville believes Cahill has already become an Everton icon.
"I think he is becoming a legend at this Club. He is slowly writing himself into the history books at Everton," Neville continued. "I think the fans now realise that we have got such a special player in Tim.
"He is a great player around the dressing room. When he is on the pitch he always looks like he is going to get a goal too."
