da apostaganha: Everton fans are pleading with their club to sign Jamaal Lascelles, after the Newcastle captain said he was impressed by the Toffees.
da betsson: Theo Walcott’s second half goal grabbed all three points for the Toffees on Monday night, as Allardyce’s side edged out Newcastle without ever stepping out of first gear.
The match was a scrappy, turgid affair, rescued only by Walcott’s moment of composure, but Jamaal Lascelles seems to have been impressed by the Blues’ performance.
“Sometimes you’ve just got to hold your hands up and say fair play to Everton, because we gave our all,” the Newcastle defender said after his side’s 1-0 defeat at Goodison.

“They started the game really well and made it hard for us. We struggled to get out of our own half at times.”
Lascelles’ comments have certainly got the attention of Everton fans, who are now pleading with their club to make a move for the 24 year-old.
The former Nottingham Forest man has developed not just into a fine defender but a fine leader under Rafael Benitez, and he would certainly make a brilliant partnership with the ever-improving Michael Keane.
