Everton are 5th in the PL!! Can you believe it? No? Well they were until Manchester United and Arsenal won their games, which put them back into 7th place respectively. However, they have performed extremely well in recent games, unbeaten since losing 3-2 to Tottenham. Jagielka scored just after half time, finding space inside the box and scrambling the ball over the line, netting his 3rd goal in 3 PL games. However, just 126 seconds later, Joel Robles tackled Sam Vokes for no apparent reason. Vokes wasn’t even running at goal but Robles still challenged him for the ball, awarding Burnley a needless penalty. Vokes strengthened to add, send to the goalkeeper the wrong way to equalize for the visitors. Ross Barkley stepped up in the 74th minute, unleashing a shot from distance that Heaton was bound to save, but it took a couple of nasty deflections and went in. Not later than 3 minutes later, Romelu Lukaku showed great strength, outrunning the defender, advanced towards the goal, shot into the back of the net. He has scored more PL goals (13 goals from 42 shots) than Burnley (11 goals from 146 shots). Yes, Lukaku is better than Burnley. On another note, Leighton Baines is the first defender to reach 50 PL assists. Everton have been exceptional at home in 2017, winning 8 out of 8, scoring 29, conceding just 6, and keeping 5 clean sheets.
