I woke up on Tuesday morning – perhaps like many other Evertonians – wondering whether it had all been a dream!
It was the perfect performance from Sean Dyche and the Everton team against Brighton & Hove Albion and while totally unexpected, it was a fantastic result. I wouldn’t say it makes up for all the pain that the travelling Blues supporters have had to endure this season but it was much-needed for the fanbase to finally get some kind of return for all the money, travel and time they spend as following Everton Football Club has mostly not been an enjoyable experience over the past couple of seasons.
We’ve got to give credit to the manager because even though he’d been under a bit of pressure from the fans for his decision-making over the last few games, he’s seen things that the majority of the supporters haven’t and has been pretty happy with the displays. Getting the early goal set the tone for us as goals change games but we’ve been on top against teams in the past but haven’t been productive enough when it comes to putting our chances away and have been sloppy in the final third to let teams off the hook, only for them to go down the other end and put the ball in the back of the net.
