“If someone was to say I’d be playing in the Premier League at this stage, I’d have never believed it. I’ve just got to take it in my stride, keep working hard and see where next season takes me. It’s a big leap but I’ve just got to keep working hard to keep developing my agility and other aspects. That’s what I’ve been doing,” says Jarrad Branthwaite. [EFC]

“We are a big club and we’ve got a big manager. I believe in Ancelotti, I really do. His credentials are fantastic and his record is superb. The players have told me he is fantastic on the training ground and so approachable. I’m looking forward to seeing him take charge for his first full season. I don’t think there is anyone better for Everton Football Club than Carlo Ancelotti at this time,” says Ian Snodin. [EFC]
