FORMER Burnley defender James Tarkowski’s goal on the hour was enough to seal victory for Sean Dyche’s fired-up Everton at a raucous Goodison Park on Saturday.

In front of 39,314 fans on Merseyside, former Clarets boss Dyche steered his side home against the Premier League leaders.

The new Toffees boss – this proud club’s 13th in 13 years if you include temporary appointments – was full of energy on the touchline, mirroring his newly inspired side on the pitch, as Tarkowski rose at the far post to power home a header from Dwight McNeil’s corner to spark deep joy among the club’s long-suffering fans.
