Romelu Lukaku, who ended up with four goals and could have had more, was too powerful for Bournemouth’s defence on his own. Yet the Everton manager was nowhere near as pleased with what he saw in the second half, for after establishing complete control and cruising into a three-goal lead the home side went right off the boil and allowed their opponents back into the game.
