The manager’s words suggest a week during which he undertook some mental coaching as well as on-field work.
They finally accomplished it after the sixth request. After three consecutive 1-0 home defeats, Everton eventually secured their first victory of the season, returning with all three points and a renewed sense of confidence in West London.
The 3-1 victory over Brentford came thanks to an early goal from Abdoulaye Doucoure, and then a quickfire brace of goals for James Tarkowski and replacement Dominic Calvert-Lewin in the second half after the hosts had equalized in the first.
Manager Sean Dyche spoke after the game about the chats he had with the players off the training ground and how they looked to have taken his remarks to heart on this trip to the Gtech Stadium.
While the immediate burden is off Dyche’s shoulders, the Bees pulling level a minute after Doucoure sliced his shot against the crossbar with a chance to make it 2-0 sounded all too familiar.
James Garner started in place of Arnaut Danjuma, and it was from his pass into the box that Tarkowski headed down for Doucoure to score. The manager praised both the England youth international and the senior midfielder, who was selected Player of the Match.
