Everton are now experimenting with their starting XI following the game on the weekend.
David Moyes’ side picked up another three points, which has taken them even closer to mathematical Premier League survival.
Abdoulaye Doucoure popped up with another important goal for Everton as he looks set to depart at the end of his contract.
Moyes handed a rare start to Armando Broja, but the Albanian was unable to make much of an impression in front of goal.
| Position | Team | Played MP | Won W | Drawn D | Lost L | For GF | Against GA | Diff GD | Points Pts |
| 12 | 31 | 11 | 10 | 10 | 41 | 40 | 1 | 43 | |
| 13 | 32 | 8 | 14 | 10 | 34 | 38 | -4 | 38 | |
| 14 | 32 | 10 | 8 | 14 | 38 | 45 | -7 | 38 |
With Moyes finally accepting that Everton are going to be a Premier League side next season, he is looking to offer some minutes to a number of players.
It is going to be a big summer for Everton in the transfer window and this could now be a big opportunity for Everton to look at some of their young prospects.

Everton’s Braiden Graham nets four goals for U21s
For the second week in a row, an Everton youngster has netted four goals on a Monday evening.
Justin Clarke scored four times for Everton U18s last Monday in a really impressive showing against Leeds United.
In Monday’s U21s game, it was Braiden Graham who stole the headlines scoring four of Everton’s five goals against Tottenham Hotspur.
It was certainly an entertaining clash down in north London as Everton took all three points in a dramatic 5-4 victory.
However, it is Graham who stole the show with a stunning return of four goals against the Lilywhites.
The young Northern Irishman only joined the club in the summer from Linfield but he is certainly making an impression on Merseyside.
Sean Dyche has been slammed for allowing Everton talent to leave during his time on Merseyside.
Moyes will be keen this does not happen under his watch, with the club boasting a number of bright, young prospects.
Who is Braiden Graham?
Despite only being 17 years of age, Graham is already establishing himself at U21 level in the Premier League 2.
Graham has also been playing in the U18s Premier League where he has provided a return of seven goals in 11 appearances.
However, it is his showings at U21s level which will really impress Moyes.
| 2024/25 PL 2 | Total |
| Appearances | 8 |
| Minutes | 565 |
| Goals | 5 |
| Assists | 1 |
Considering Martin Sherif has impressed this season and still has not had a look in with the Everton first team, it is unlikely fans will see Graham in the near future.
But he is certainly emerging as a name to really watch out for in the coming years.
