After posting an excellent performance in Everton’s comprehensive 3-0 victory over Crystal Palace, Alex Iwobi has reflected on his player-of-the-match display.
“On a personal level, I am playing with a lot of confidence. The manager tells me, ‘Play the way you train’. You can see I’m very confident and I’m able to express myself on the pitch. For our third goal, I was able to do that with a cheeky little flick!
“The manager gives me so much belief and, when I have confidence and motivation on the pitch, I feel I’m almost unstoppable.

“There were a lot of positives from Saturday’s win, and it was great to see Dom Calvert-Lewin get his first goal of the season.
“For the goal he scored, you have to give credit to him, because he worked hard to get the ball back at first, and then the composure of his first touch was just amazing.
“I still get the assist for it, but I don’t know how, because Dom’s first touch was crazy!
“My role for the team was to get involved in our attacking patterns and make those triangles on the side [of the pitch]. I had to be disciplined but also attack.
He added: “Now, we must keep this hunger and this motivation. It’s another test away at Fulham next weekend and we’ll go again.”
