Everton fans have been reacting on social media after Allan, Abdoulaye Doucoure and James Rodriguez all made their debuts against Tottenham.
The Blues signed all three players in the space of five days earlier this month and Carlo Ancelotti had no hesitation in throwing the trio into the action.
Allan and Doucoure lined up in midfield alongside Andre Gomes with Rodriguez and Richarlison playing in support of the game's only goalscorer Dominic Calvert-Lewin.
And although all three have only been at the club for a week tops, it clearly didn’t show in their performances at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Everton ran out 1-0 winners thanks to a Dominic Calvert-Lewin goal.
There were several candidates for man of the match - not least Rodriguez and his fellow new recruits.
Everton fans reacting to the performances of all three recent arrivals were all impressed with what they witnessed from the trio.
Here is a selection of comments from Twitter:
Speaking before the game, Everton hero Tim Cahill said on the trio: “I think the business has been brilliant.
“To get players like Allan and Doucoure in the midfield, it needed strengthening. But probably the area they needed the most was the creativity.
"You look at players like James - what he’s done in the past - if they can keep him fit, I feel like he can add another dimension to try and get Richarlison, and these sorts of players, more goals.
"The middle of the park, Allan and Doucoure, seasoned pros. I’m excited because the influence of the manager has really told in this situation.”
