Everton man Andros Townsend loves life at Goodison Park
Andros Townsend has revealed that he loves life at Everton after he scored another goal in the 2-0 win over Norwich City.
The 30-year-old only scored one goal for Crystal Palace last season, but he has already scored four in all competitions this year.
He looks reborn under Rafael Benitez and has been given the freedom that he seems to have been denied while he was with the Eagles.
Speaking to the club’s website, he said: “You can see I’m loving it here.
“I’m loving fighting it out at the right end of the table, scoring goals, getting assists.
“I just need to keep working hard, and long may this continue.”
An astute signing.
We can’t imagine that many people would have thought that after picking up Townsend on a free, he would have already directly contributed to seven goals in all competitions.
However, he has proved to be a great signing by Benitez so far, and long may it continue.
He seems happy at Goodison Park and is with a manager who he has worked with previously, and he is starting to provide that end product that has been missing from his game for a long time.
The Toffees had a little bit of a sticky patch after losing to Aston Villa and crashing out of the Carabao Cup, and that win on Saturday was exactly what they needed.
The Toffees and Townsend seem confident, and long may that continue.
The former England winger is in fine form, and considering he was picked up on a free, he looks a better signing with each passing match.
