A number of Everton fans have taken to Twitter to praise Alex Iwobi’s impressive display for Carlo Ancelotti’s Toffees at Goodison Park today.

Everton returned to the top of the Premier League table with a fourth victory from four league games, running out 4-2 winners over Brighton on Merseyside.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin continued his incredible scoring run with his sixth Premier League goal of the season and ninth in all competitions.

Colombian duo Yerry Mina and James Rodriguez, meanwhile, got three between them, the latter with a brace.

Iwobi, a player who hasn’t had much game time this term and previously came in for criticism from some fans, proved his critics wrong against the Seagulls.

The 24-year-old was impressive in the League Cup win over Fleetwood, claiming a goal and an assist, and was given the chance to impress today after replacing the injured Richarlison.

Iwobi seized the opportunity with both hands, particularly in the second half, being a constant thorn in Brighton’s side and a creative outlet for the Toffees.

His standout moments on the day were the assist for Everton’s third goal, delivering a great ball to the back post for Rodriguez to finish, and his role in the build-up for the Toffees’ fourth.

Needless to say, Evertonians are in dreamland, with seven consecutive wins in all competitions, top of the table, playing superb football and most of the Blues players shining.
