All smiles at Goodison Park as Dwight McNeil and James Tarkowski combine brains to hand Sean Dyche a spectacular start as Everton manager, recording a 3rd successive win against Arsenal for the first time since 1978 and pulling them out of the relegation zone.
Arsenal faces their second loss of the season from the Incoming Everton boss Dyche, the manager also highlighted that hard work and physicality as the ingredients to sustain Everton's omnipresence in the Premier League. His starting eleven showed those traits, giving the home fans something to cheer as they frustrated the high-flying Arsenal.

The high-flying coach vowed to take Everton back to the glories of the 80s. His first day in charge was more reminiscent of Joe Royle's mid-90s 'dogs of war' as they secured the shock result of this Premier League season.
Serious pressure has now been mounted on Mikel Arteta since Arsenal has begun the second period with purpose but never got up to the levels they showed at home to Manchester United last time out in the premier league and could never seriously trouble a resolute Everton backline in the final stages.
They will now have a keen eye on Sunday where Manchester City can close their gap at the top of the table to just two points if they win at Tottenham.
