Everton overcame Ipswich Town in comfortable fashion on Saturday, managing to expel their struggles on the road.

Their hosts were admittedly very poor, and seldom really threatened, but Sean Dyche's side still had to forge the necessary chances and put them away.

Both finishes, from Iliman Ndiaye and later Michael Keane, were sumptuous in their own right.

Alas, it was far from the perfect display, and the 53-year-old boss has since outlined one area that his players need to improve on.

Sean Dyche was not 100% happy with Ipswich Town win Speaking to the press after his side's routine victory, he remained somewhat critical.

After all, he has always attested that he seeks to never get too high after a win, and never too low after defeats.

'People have questioned that, but it shows the team are learning - doing the hard bit, the ugly bit, to make sure we looked after ourselves. So there was a lot of pleasing aspects.

'I must say our fans have filled the away end again. It's a long journey after some terrible weather so I thank them for their support as well.

'Both our goals are good finishes. We know Keano is a very good finisher and we want goals to come in different ways so I'm pleased with that.

Ipswich felt they should have had a penalty vs Everton, but protests were swiftly waved away after VAR overturned the on-field decision.

Everton need to build on this victory Having already done well to turn four straight losses into four games unbeaten now, there is still so much work to do for the Everton manager.

And, with this win in particular, the foundation to build is abundantly clear.

That starts next weekend when they welcome Fulham to Goodison Park, a match in which they have struggled in recent years.

Should they manage to snag at the very least a point, they will then entertain another easier fixture, travelling to 19th-placed Southampton.

These are two highly winnable fixtures, and could put Everton in a really strong position going into the busy Christmas schedule.
