Delph tactic
Actually, it seems my pre-match thinking was right!
Fabian Delph is looking to drop in alongside the centre-backs on occasion to allow Nkounkou to push forward on that left-hand side.
Everton starting to make progress
This match is why they don’t do defence v defence sessions in training.
Everton are starting to maybe progress up the pitch, but they’re not threatening to penetrate through the Newcastle back line at all.
The hosts are very happy to let the Blues have the ball, knowing they will eventually gift it straight back to them.
