One may wonder how Bournemouth continue to unearth so many talented prospects.
Andoni Iraola may have had to part ways with his talisman in Antoine Semenyo in the January transfer window, but the impact of his exit has been minimal due to the rise of others in the squad.
That includes recent arrival of teenage Brazilian striker Rayan, who has enjoyed a lightning start to life at the Vitality Stadium.
The Cherries may have been trailing at half-time in their midweek clash against Everton, but it was the 19-year-old who sparked the comeback.
Rayan scored his second goal for the club to level the scoreline at the Hill Dickinson Stadium, before Amine Adli completed the comeback a few minutes later.
The hosts were then reduced to 10 men as Jake O'Brien received a red card with a little over 20 minutes left to play.
In his first three appearances for Bournemouth, Rayan has scored twice and registered one assist.
According to Opta, Rayan also becomes just the third teenager to register a goal or assist in each of his first three Premier League appearances, after Robbie Keane and Anthony Martial.
The sky is surely the limit?
