Digne swap

Lucas Digne has made it clear he would swap his last-minute heroics against Watford last night for all three points.

The Frenchman scored a free-kick in the last minute of injury time to earn Everton a point in the ‘Z Cars derby.’

However,, he stated he would have preferred the win over his late equaliser.

Mirallas future

Kevin Mirallas’ agent has been discussing his client’s future at Everton. The Belgian is currently out on loan at Fiorentina, where he scored his first goal for the club at the weekend.
