Gylfi Sigurdsson, Idrissa Gueye earn top marks as Everton thrash Fulham

Everton midfielder Gylfi Sigurdsson headlined his team's 3-0 win against Fulham on Saturday after responding to his penalty miss with two goals to help the home side return to winning ways after successive defeats.

Whatever manager Marco Silva said at half-time seemed to work as Everton played with greater urgency and much-needed composure after a ponderous first half. Such composure saw substitute Bernard patiently assist the third goal by waiting for support before releasing the onrushing Sigurdsson to fire home his second.

This efficiency in the final third will have pleased Silva every bit as much as a first clean sheet of the season at the other end of the pitch.
