Halftime Thoughts - Everton lead Wolves 2-0 in a stronger attacking performance than we have seen from them in a handful of games. The key will be staying aggressive and ensuring they keep the foot on the gas in the second half.

FULLTIME THOUGHTS: Everton simply don't have enough incision. That’s three games without scoring, and three goals scored in their last six games. A wasted opportunity to pick up three points with much, much tougher games on the horizon.
