Steven Pienaar has praised Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford on social networking site Twitter for his performance against Crystal Palace at the weekend.

Pickford was in action for Everton against Palace at Goodison Park in the Premier League on Sunday evening.

The 24-year-old goalkeeper was superb for the Toffees, who won the match 2-0.

Former Everton star Pienaar was following the match, and the ex-South Africa international was impressed with the performance produced by Pickford.

Pickford is one of the best goalkeepers in the world, and the England international was superb for Everton against Palace.

The former Sunderland star does make mistakes from time to time, but there is no doubt that the 24-year-old is one of the best shot-stoppers in the Premier League.

For Everton to challenge for the Premier League top six and perhaps even break into it, Pickford will have to be on top of his form.

The Merseyside outfit are now eighth in the Premier League table with 15 points from nine matches.
