This is some win for Baines and Everton, our first league win since April, our first home win since mid-February, only our second home win in 10 months, our first clean sheet since early April, and our first league win v Man City in 4 years!!!
This was City's first defeat of the season, their first league loss since March, and only their second since early December, they had scored in the last 20 games, and only had 1 defeat in 20 before today!!!
Well in, Bainesy!

I'd completely forgotten about him. Maybe Man City have too. He has not featured in any U18s game so far this season.

John Ebbrell has left his role as Academy Player Senior Development Coach to become assistant manager at Oldham Athletic under David Unsworth.
Ebbrell has been a valued part of Everton Academy since 2015, initially returning to the Club as a coach before being named Under-18s manager and later stepping up to support David Unsworth as part of the Under-23s set up that won two Premier League 2 titles and the Premier League Cup.
