Everton captain Seamus Coleman admits the players are enjoying their football under manager Carlo Ancelotti.

Coleman has opened up on the appointment of Ancelotti and how Everton's players are adapting to life under their new boss.

“I never like to see any manager go. But since Duncan [Ferguson] and the boss now [Ancelotti] have come in we've had a great run of fixtures," he said.

“His CV speaks for itself. The lads come in for training and are eager to listen and learn from him.

“He's made little tweaks in training; it's been really competitive and enjoyable.

“He probably came in to a better set-up than he imagined, so Duncan deserves great credit, too."
