Impressive performance, felt we showed fight once again, didn't let our heads drop. Felt Digne shouldn't have got so close to Traore, if you give him space then yes he can outrun you but it gives you more of a chance than getting so tight because he is ridiculously strong. Digne had no chance once he started running, if he had a football brain and end product, he'd be a world beater with his physical attributes.

I think Silva will analyse right back at the end of the season depending on how Sidibe and Kenny do. Hopefully Seamus Coleman isn't our right back much longer, been a great signing for us but every year he regresses a little bit more, still can't cross or pass a ball, he won't develop that now and his pace and energy will go soon. Hopefully get that sorted in the summer.

Aside from that though I am happy with the win and the way in which we won. Richarlison is class, even in games he's bad he always gives his best. People moan about him sulking, I like it, it means he wants to do well and isn't happy with his own performance.

Delph, Sigurdsson and Iwobi were great aswell. Kean will get better, he has a lot of talent, that's obvious, would like to see him be a bit calmer in possession instead of always trying to rush into things but he works hard. I mention the work rate a lot because it's a combination we haven't had. Under Moyes we had hard workers but not a lot of talent. Under Martinez and Koeman we had talent but no hard work. We are seeing talented players now always running, always pressing and I love it.

Wouldn't change a thing against Wolves tbh, I know a lot of people rate Eddie Howe but for me, no, poor defensively and very naive when it comes to setting his teams up to a strict game plan. We have to get at them early and score quickly.

International football is still terrible and I already can't wait for us to be back.

Up the toffees.

Like trying to shift a brick wall with that lump running at you. Mind you he only did it once to Digne after that Digne stood off him.
