Everton news: Sean Dyche hails clear 'mentality' as Toffees beat Leeds to escape bottom three
Sean Dyche hailed a second successive home win as a step in the right direction after the 1-0 win over fellow strugglers Leeds lifted Everton out relegation zone and dropped their opponents into it.

"I thought that mentality was clear today. It is another step in the right direction," said Dyche.
"You see the other results today (relegation-threatened Southampton and Bournemouth both won), the topsy-turvy nature of the Premier League.
"It just reinforces the work we do with the players. I only try to guide them with what I think is important for them, they still have the freedom to go and play and I thought that was better today.
"Today it was about finding that balance and defending solidly - I don't think they (Leeds) had a shot on target - but I also thought there was some good quality football today.
"You tie all that together with the work ethic and I think that was tremendous today. We had some very good chances, had one cleared off the line."
