The Blues ended this patch of games with an excellent win away at Leicester yesterday afternoon with what was a fine performance at times.
There was, of course, times where we were a little off of the pace but I felt as though for most of the game we were in control against a very handy side.
Certainly, their main threats barely had a sniff all game and it has to be said that as well as our strong attacking play we’re starting to solidify a defence.
At the heart of that yesterday was Kurt Zouma with the defender underlining why France have called him up with a powerful display at the back.
He dealt with what was thrown at him rather well and was a constant present at the back to help clean things up.
Certainly, he looks a real gem of a loan signing and these Everton fans certainly liked what they were seeing…
Thought Zouma was outstanding today. Marshalled the back line extremely well. Keane now hitting a steady run of form too. Just need to start picking up a few more clean sheets and being more clinical with our chances. #EFC

Richarlison, Digne, Zouma and Bernard are the business. Some sound recruitment done there by Marcel Brands #EFC

Zouma could have should have 3 or 4 already this season from corners… wish he'd bury one and give the nerves a rest.. #EFC #COYB

Everton have ignition, and have found balance. Bernard & Sigurdsson have look like they've been playing together for years, Richarlison as No 9 and Zouma a beast at the back. #EFC

Great result today. Good performance in patches. First 20 mins we very good with Bernard looking a class act, especially on a free! Defence looked a bit better. Thought Zouma bossed it. #EFC
