Everton striker Cenk Tosun scored his first goal of the season in the 3-0 Premier League victory over Fulham last weekend.
Tosun revealed after the game that ‘it’s perfect’ to play with Theo Walcott, Gylfi Sigurdsson & Richarlison in the attack.
The Turkey international underlined that they are starting to gel and hoped his goal will be the first of many.
“It’s perfect to play with players like Theo, Gylfi and Richarlison,” he told evertontv. “We know each other better and now and have played together since the season started. Theo had the ball on the line and I knew he would cross to the back post, so that’s why I ran there. It was a nice cross for him and I want to thank him.
“Straight after I came on, we scored the first goal and then a few minutes later I scored the second one. I was so happy to score for the team – it was my first goal [of the season] and I hope I will score next week as well.
“We played the first three games good and then the next two games not so good. I felt good on the pitch. I couldn’t score [in those games] so I had to wait now for my chance again – and this was the game. It’s perfect for a striker if you can come on and change everything.
“We played good in the second half. The first half was not the best but we showed the people that we are a really good team at home and I want to thank all the supporters who came today and shouted for us.”

Tosun has a total of six goals since joining the Toffees from Besiktas in January.
The striker came off the bench against Fulham to score after being dropped in the previous game against Arsenal.
Tosun will be hoping to return to the starting lineup in the league when Everton take on Leicester City on Saturday at the King Power Stadium.
