Everton are really pressing well, Klopp style pressing. Sometimes even double press.
This is where I see a big difference between ours and Everton's. Our press is very disjointed at times.

I think City are going to prioritise the CL this season - and can see them getting to the final and very possibly winning it finally. Meanwhile, hate to say it but think Liverpool will win the PL

They should be in contention for top 6, they've spent about 300m since 2017!

Obviously lots of that on wrong type of player but they're not some minnow. Would only go back to the level they were for many many years under David Moyes and that first season under Martinez.
Don't mind Everton doing well because the enemy of your enemy is your friend even though they always roll over to Liverpool away, but at least they seem to be one of the only few teams left in the league who can stop Liverpool at home. I think the top 6 will remain as it is, I've thought that Wolves could break into the top six this season but yesterday was a reality check. Everton will be in the top 10, challenging for top 6 thereabouts but ultimately fall short.

Said it before but Delph is no DM. Gana is looking very big loss for Everton this summer in these away games.

Great finish. Wilson is too good for Bournemouth.

Kean only coming on in the 70th minute when Everton are losing.

You have to question if this is because of off-the-field activities and he has issues...

Why so?

I remember Arsenal struggling against 10 man Watford last season.

I've not watched the game, but Lewis Cook is definitely someone we should be targeting for that deep-lying playmaker role.
I've always liked the look of him. I think, for England, he could end up being a better option than Rice as the deepest midfielder depending on how he comes back from his injury.
