Everton manager Sean Dyche has been told that Abdoulaye Doucoure grew in stature with his performance during the jaw-dropping victory over Brighton on Monday afternoon.
Doucoure netted the opener after 35 seconds at the Amex Stadium as Everton swept aside their opponents with a pulsating 90 minute showing and 5-1 verdict. The midfielder grabbed another goal before the half-time whistle as Dwight McNeil (2) took centre stage upon the restart.
Both men were close to unplayable as they competed for the man-of-the-match award. However, the prize that really mattered to them was helping to steer The Toffees away from the bottom three.
