    Alex Corps: Ican't believe Leighton Baines was still on the pitch after that horrible two footed tackle on the lino. Where's the consistency? 

    Alex has his tongue firmly in cheek. I think. [see 21.40 entry]

    "Anyone with a bit of courage and strength of character who wants to battle it out, and be part of a great group of players, then we’ll have you.”

    Everton boss Ronald Koeman, speaking to BBC Sport: "I’m really pleased about our performance. I wasn’t happy with our slow start but we showed a really good attitude and reaction twice. 

    "We played good football and created a lot of opportunities. We could have stopped the first goal but not the second. The team showed good spirit. We needed a bit more luck like Dominic Calvert-Lewin's late header because that was three points.

    "Ross Barkley is an important player for the team. He showed his quality. He had a good performance.

    "We like to keep the momentum after the win against Leicester. Two away games, four points is good."

    Hull boss Mike Phelan will be thinking what could have been. They took the lead twice and threw it away to a free header, when you have three big centre-backs.

    Overall, a thoroughly entertaining game. It was was scrappy and frantic at times but a draw is a fair result.

    Robert Snodgrass was excellent, but not just for his set pieces, but his all-round play too.

    Ross Barkley came up with a fantastic header for the equaliser, but striker Romelu Lukaku was kept quiet.
