Everton were a handful in the first half but we soon took control. Great win with intelligent use of subs. Thought Webster looked great when he came on. I have a feeling we’ll see more of him this season.
Same start as last season's, then. Let's hope the momentum isn't stopped dead in its tracks with injuries, this time.
Always going to be hamstrung with Pickford in goal; a ‘keeper with normal length arms would have definitely saved the second.Everton looked very poor at times, a bit too fixated on the long diagonal out to Harrison who invariably wasted the crossing opportunities. Pickford and his little arms aided goals two and three.
Saw Minteh got subbed after 47 mins.... Is he okay Hope that was just tactical and nothing more.

Good to see that- wondered if he might sulk as was not starting but did his usual stuffAdingra had something to prove when he came on. Almost got the goal & assist double.
I thought he had a really poor game - seemed to be trying too hard and as a result his passing was woeful. Hopefully just a case of settling in though. Edit - maybe I'm one of those numpties.Wieffer actually impressed me. Few stray passes but he’ll pick up the pace. He does strike me as the kind of strong niggly player the numpties of NSC won’t see the value of though. The Dale Stephens effect.
