“Maximum effort from the players has got us a win and I think the mentality continues to grow here…another clean sheet and the two centre-halves and the goalkeeper are playing very well. I could mention everyone at the moment. I think their attention to what’s going on and their mentality to focus on the next challenge has been delightful for me as a manager to work with,” says Sean Dyche. [EFC]
Hear more from the manager and Abdoulaye Doucoure following the win.
“It’s amazing – the perfect day. Obviously first of all, getting the three points at home and keeping the momentum going [is important], but to score in front of a full Goodison is what dreams are made off…I have just had to keep working hard and take my chances when they come my way. Today, I did that…we’ve got a lot of games this month, so I am going to keep working hard, giving my all and hopefully get the rewards for that,” says Lewis Dobbin. [EFC]
