Lewis Warrington reveals what left him feeling 'numb' on 'perfect' Everton debut

Boyhood Blue Lewis Warrington said he was "absolutely buzzing" after making his senior debut in Everton's Carabao Cup win over Fleetwood Town.

The 19-year-old came on in the 64th minute and impressed while on the pitch - leading Frank Lampard to describe his performance as "brilliant." Lampard added: "And when I say brilliant, people might ask, 'Was he brilliant?' Well, yes, because he got us playing. He received it and did basic things in midfield. Receive, play, move, open up the game... he did it."

It was a special night for the teenage midfielder, who joined the club aged just six and said he would have been in the stands watching had he not been in the squad.
