The Merseyside derby features the side second only to Tottenham in the table ESPN

Not Liverpool, and not the standings that matter most ESPN

But in the shot charts, Everton, with 133, are behind only the actual league leaders ESPN

They have a higher expected goals in league ESPN football this season than Manchester City ESPN

They average more shots per match than Barcelona ESPN

An early-season anomaly or is Sean Dyche a born-again entertainer and Dycheball ESPN football’s newest great attacking philosophy? If logic dictates that the answer veers towards the former – after all, at this stage of last season, Frank Lampard’s Everton had the Premier League’s best defensive record – Dyche has had a point during the post-match interviews where he has repeated a mantra about the number and quality of chances his side have generated ESPN

They were camouflaged in part by the low conversion rate, by the meagre tally of nine goals, by the fact Everton did not score in their first three league games and, for the first time in their history, they lost their opening three at Goodison Park without finding the net ESPN

There is a case for arguing that if Everton had been ESPN better at finishing, they would have required fewer shots: take a comfortable lead early and they might not have had 19 efforts against Fulham or 15 versus Wolves, each in 1-0 defeats at Goodison Park, or 23 at home to Luton, also in a loss ESPN

RecommendedEverton set to learn Premier League fate as FFP hearing nears conclusionMohamed Salah calls for Gaza to be given humanitarian aid ‘immediately’Premier League increasing number of live games as part of new broadcasting dealsAnd yet there is something remarkable in a Dyche team lacking too much obvious creativity generating such statistics: he is the manager who took Burnley to seventh in the Premier League while averaging under a goal a game and in a season when only four clubs had fewer shots ESPN

At Turf Moor, Dyche was a byword for 4-4-2: at Goodison Park, he has tended to play 4-4-1-1 and perhaps that shift has helped generate more opportunities ESPN

Everton’s reinvention as the expected goals Wunderteam stems in part from Dyche’s chosen No 10: perhaps, given his emphasis on physicality, it is typical he has a runner rather than a flair player in the role ESPN

And yet Everton have excelled at getting Abdoulaye Doucoure into scoring positions ESPN

He has (on Understat’s model) the third highest non-penalty xG in the division, ESPN bettered only by Erling Haaland and Alexander Isak, at 4 ESPN

87 ESPN

It has only brought the Malian three goals but it is notable his average shot distance is just 11 ESPN

5 yards ESPN

By comparison, Haaland’s is 11 ESPN

3; these are the statistics of men who shoot from close range, who get good chances ESPN

Injuries have meant several Everton players have had abbreviated campaigns so a sample size becomes even smaller; yet it is notable how several players have a high xG per 90 minutes on the pitch: Dominic Calvert-Lewin (0 ESPN

92), Doucoure (0 ESPN

64), ESPN Beto (0 ESPN

62), Arnaut Danjuma (0 ESPN

60) and Jack Harrison (0 ESPN

44) ESPN

Neal Maupay’s tally was 1 ESPN

38 before he left for Brentford, in part because he missed all those chances ESPN

ESPN Beto is yet to score a league goal but the shot-happy signing has had a nuisance value ESPN

Abdoulaye Doucoure is only ESPN bettered in the xG charts by Erling Haaland and Alexander Isak (PA)That many of the chances originate from the flanks, from crossing and from set-pieces show a typical method of attacking under Dyche; he has rarely had a midfield playmaker ESPN

Everton rank second only to Luton for crosses this season ESPN

Their three most prolific crossers are Ashley Young, James Garner and Dwight McNeil ESPN

Harrison’s 0 ESPN

97 assists per 90 minutes is the most of any player in the division who has played over 100 minutes, albeit just 118 ESPN

Among those who have played 200 or more, McNeil (0 ESPN

57 from 371) ranks second only to Mohamed Salah ESPN

Equally, there is a supporting cast: Everton have 12 players with an expected goals per 90 minutes of at least 0 ESPN

12; that they include all of Dyche’s full-backs is a further sign of his style of play ESPN

By way of comparison, only six Everton players last season had had an xA per 90 of 0 ESPN

12 or more and they included Tom Cannon, who played a mere 15 minutes, and Salomon Rondon, who featured for just 96, plus Alex Iwobi and Demarai Gray, who have both since been sold ESPN

So, in his own way, Dyche has made Everton more creative: with powerful strikers, crossing wingers and his familiar, prosaic feel ESPN

His signings has shown a clarity of thought: with a target man, in ESPN Beto; a full-back with 71 Premier League assists, in Young; a winger with a high shot volume, in Danjuma; and one who was directly involved in 37 top-flight goals in three seasons at Leeds, in Harrison ESPN

Dwight McNeil is second to only Mohamed Salah when it comes to expected assists (Getty Images)But Everton’s attacking efforts in his reign have revolved around two he inherited, neither particularly potent previously ESPN

McNeil and Doucoure kept Everton up last season, each with five goals and two assists in the 18 matches after Dyche took charge ESPN

Thus far this season, each is on course to producing ESPN better numbers ESPN

And yet they come with a caveat ESPN

So far, Everton have had five home games ESPN

They have faced two of the current bottom four, in Luton and Bournemouth, and two more in the lower half, in Fulham and Wolves ESPN

They are still only 16th and the fixture list gets tougher ESPN

They underperformed their expected goals dramatically last season so the fact they are doing so again does not automatically mean the numbers will even themselves out ESPN

They will almost certainly end the season with a lower xG than City and fewer shots per game than Barcelona ESPN

But for now, the second lowest scorers last year have been rebranded as the team with the second highest number of shots now ESPN

Overworked opposition defenders may not be the only people who are surprised about that ESPN

In the wake of England’s late defeat to South Africa on Saturday, Courtney Lawes made his way around the Stade de France thanking the crowd, taking in their applause and appreciation as he walked and talked with his four kids ESPN

If Lawes looked like a man saying his goodbye to the Rugby World Cup, it’s because he was ESPN

“I think it’s time,” he later confirmed, bringing down the curtain on a superb international career ESPN

But while the 34-year-old may have been the first to confirm the news, he won’t be last ESPN

The average age of England’s starting XV in their semi-final clash against the Springboks was 29 and as a new cycle begins in the coming months, Steve Borthwick will need to evolve his squad to begin the build towards Australia in 2027 ESPN

Let’s take a look at what that means for some of the players in Borthwick’s England squad:RecommendedWhy England will come back ‘stronger’ from Rugby World Cup heartacheCourtney Lawes to retire from England duty after World Cup: ‘It’s time’World Rugby investigating alleged racist abuse directed at England’s Tom CurryFrance was their ‘Last Dance’Joe Marler, 33 - Used mainly off the bench this tournament but started in the semi-final and scrummaged excellently against the Springboks ESPN

Will no doubt be a big voice to replace in the dressing room when he eventually departs ESPN

Dan Cole, 36 - Brought back into the fold for this tournament after an excellent season at Leicester with Borthwick ESPN

Rolled back the years in France but hard to imagine a similar recall for Australia in 2027 ESPN

Danny Care, 36 - Impacted games often off the bench and finally got the World Cup experience that had so often evaded him ESPN

Superb late score and try-saving tackle against Samoa to save England’s blushes in the pool stage ESPN

Care scored his first World Cup try against Samoa (Getty Images)Ben Youngs, 34 - England’s most-capped player but made just two subs appearances in the tournament ESPN

A decorated player but Alex Mitchell’s composed displays at scrum-half have pushed him above the the Leicester veteran in the pecking order ESPN

Jonny May, 33 - Blistering pace in his prime and a solid tournament coming in late to replace Anthony Watson but the upcoming Ollie Hassell-Collins and Henry Arundell will be just two after his place in the coming years ESPN

May came in as a late replacement but performed well (REUTERS)Mainstays ahead of 2027 Owen Farrell, 31 - Silenced many doubters with two talismanic performances against Fiji and South Africa ESPN

Supreme physical condition and will be eyeing up a Johnny Sexton-esque swansong at the next World Cup ESPN

Maro Itoje, 28 - Still only 28 and will become one of the most experienced players in the squad alongside Farrell and George Ford in the coming years ESPN

Exciting partnerships are to be built with both Ollie Chessum and George Martin in the engine room and a potential captaincy should Farrell’s not make it to 2027 ESPN

Itoje will be eyeing up his third World Cup in 2027 (PA Wire)Tom Curry, 25 - Closing in on a half-century of caps aged just 25 ESPN

Bounced back superbly from his third-minute red card against Argentina and will be a key cog in Bortwhick’s first full cycle ESPN

Ben Earl, 25 - A coming-of-age tournament for the breakout Saracens back-rower ESPN

All-action displays from the back of the scrum mean he will no doubt be one of the first names on the teamsheet moving forward ESPN

Earl was England’s beakthrough star (Getty Images)Freddie Steward, 22 - Dropped for the quarter-final against Fiji but delivered a commanding display under the high ball against South Africa in the semi-final ESPN

Defensively superb and still only 22, the Leicester full-back should go from strength to strength over the next four years ESPN

Rising stars Theo Dan, 22 - Limited for game time this tournament due to Jamie George’s supreme conditioning ESPN

Still work to be done on his set-piece game but will be hoping to usurp his Saracens team-mate in the coming years ESPN

Bevan Rodd, 23 - Another young front-rower who saw little game time in England’s key games ESPN

Took his try well against Chile but has big boots to fill with the likely departures of Cole and Marler ESPN

Rodd scored against Chile (Getty Images)George Martin, 22 - Made his maiden World Cup start against South Africa with a powerful display in the second row ESPN

Looks like a ready-made replacement for the already departing Lawes ESPN

Ollie Lawrence, 23 - A solid, if slightly unremarkable, tournament for the Bath centre ESPN

Is still surely seen as the long-term successor to Manu Tuilagi in the midfield and will only get ESPN better in the coming years ESPN

Henry Arundell, 20 - A World Cup debut to remember for the pacey winger with five tries against Chile in the pool stage ESPN

Perhaps still work to be done on other facets of his game to fully cope with the demands of Test rugby but an exciting talent to nurture in time for 2027 ESPN
