Everton head coach Frank Lampard commented on the performance of Ukrainian defender Vitaliy Mykolenko in a friendly match with Blackpool (4:2). The Ukrainian scored a goal and provided an assist.
“Did both fullbacks make assists? They must do it. If we want to play like today and play attacking football at the same time, because this formation may look defensive, but in my opinion it makes us stronger, but we need to have an attacking line and full-backs play a huge role in this .
Mikolenko and Patterson made good passes and we supplied them with good passes. Many elements of our game today were better than in other pre-season matches. We will continue to work on it,” said Lampard.
