Moyes will be encouraged by Everton’s moments of pressure as the half progressed, but the slickness of Liverpool’s attacking play has been of the highest quality. Gravenberch, Ekitike and Kerkez have been particularly impressive. When it clicks, it feels like they can score each time they attack. After recent squandering of leads, however, Everton now if they get the next goal Anfield will get nervous.
The first 30 minutes was Liverpool’s best spell of Premier League football so far this season. Intriguingly, they produced it with Wirtz and Isak watching on from the bench. Everton were pulled apart in midfield far too easily, with the unorthodox runs of Kerkez and Bradley driving them to distraction. Since conceding the second, Moyes’ have improved with Beto and Geuye missing chances. All about the next goal.
Another good Everton move down the left involving Grealish, carrying the ball off the touchline and releasing Dewsbury-Hall. Intelligent cut-back from the midfielder to find Gueye who was free at the edge of the box, but he scuffed the shot and Alisson saved with ease.
