Marco Silva hails Iwobi, others for Everton victory

Everton boss Marco Silva has given his players including Nigeria international, Alex Iwobi a pat in the back for the well-deserved 2-0 win over West Ham.

Goals from Bernard and substitute Gylfi Sigurdsson ended the Toffees’ run of four successive Premier League defeats in impressive style at Goodison Park on Saturday.

Everton had begun the game in the relegation zone, and with manager Silva under heavy scrutiny, but their performance was not one of a struggling side.

The pressure, every single day, has to be a pleasure. It has to be a privilege for us. We are doing what we love

Silva said: “Pressure is normal in football. When you are in a very good moment, the pressure is there to win more games. When you are not – and the last results were not good enough – we have to react. The pressure is always there.

“The pressure, every single day, has to be a pleasure. It has to be a privilege for us. We are doing what we love. It is a football match, it is not the end of the world.
