Everton won against West Ham United in the Premier League on Sunday.

Ronny Goodlass told BBC Sport (15:28) that Everton could have won by bigger margin against West Ham United.

Everton returned to winning ways in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon with a 2-0 victory over West Ham at Goodison Park.

The Toffees took the lead in the 50th minute through Romelu Lukaku, and doubled their advantage in the 76th minute when Ross Barkley found the net.

Former Everton winger Goodlass was following the match, and the Englishman believes that Ronald Koeman’s side could have won by a bigger margin.

The 63-year-old has also praised Everton goalkeeper Joel Robles and West Ham custodian Adrian.

“We keep talking about small margins in the Premier League,” Goodlass told BBC Sport (15:28). “You make a small mistake and you end up 1-0 down.

“It could have ended up three or four nil in the end. But I think 2-0 is fair. West Ham played well in the first half – they’re getting back waiting for players to get fit. The goalkeepers have both had a good game.”
