"Sean Dyche would not have recognised Everton on his return to the club he saved from relegation and possible administration not so long ago. The former Everton manager was greeted by plush new surroundings, a contented fanbase and a vibrant, confident opponent as the home team rose to fifth in the Premier League with a comfortable defeat of Nottingham Forest."
"Dewsbury-Hall forced the first goal and scored the third, with Thierno Barry finally getting off the mark to wild acclaim in-between. Forest were subdued and second-best throughout. Everton fell behind after 55 seconds of their last home game, against Newcastle. Evidently keen to make amends, they were immediately on the front foot against Forest and ahead with 83 seconds on the clock. Best take your seats early at Hill Dickinson Stadium."
"The visitors invited problems by making a sluggish start. Nicolo Savona was booked after 24 seconds for tripping Jack Grealish from behind after the attacking midfielder had slipped away from him. Forest initially dealt with James Garner's free-kick, but Everton kept the pressure on and Dewsbury-Hall cut inside Dan Ndoye to create space on the left. The midfielder's dangerous cross skimmed off the head of Nikola Milenkovic and nestled in the far corner of the goal."
Sean Dyche returned to the club he previously saved from relegation and possible administration and found plush new surroundings, a contented fanbase and a vibrant, confident Everton. Everton rose to fifth in the Premier League after a comfortable defeat of Nottingham Forest, with Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall producing an immaculate midfield display. Dewsbury-Hall forced the opening goal with a dangerous cross that skimmed off Nikola Milenkovic into the far corner and later scored the third. Thierno Barry scored between those goals. Forest started sluggishly, saw Nicolo Savona booked after 24 seconds, and offered only brief threats as Everton dominated.
