Everton were very Sean Dyche and that made for a very entertaining game of football, sprinkled in some astounding quality from Nottingham Forest, and one man in particular. willfordy25
. Sean Dyche will have been growling at his Everton players about the importance of snapping into challenges, and the Nottingham Forest fans always require that same commitment from their players at the City Ground. It was as though the midfielders were in fact playing American football, constantly reacting to fumbles, with the ball seemingly never under control.
That’s exactly what happened with their second goal. Goalkeeper Jordan Pickford booted a free-kick from inside his own half towards James Tarkowski , who headed the ball to Michael Keane , who headed it to Abdoulaye Doucoure , who headed it past Keylor Navas. It’s hard to imagine a more Dyche-y goal.
There were lots of ‘I didn’t touch him’ protestations from Everton players flying into challenges, with the counter-argument being ‘perhaps not, but if you did you may have ended his career’. Soft touches under Lampard, the same Everton players now look like a bunch of absolute b*stards to play against.
