Everton boss Rafa Benitez is delighted with the support he's received since the start of the season.

Benitez praised the away fans for their Carabao Cup win at Huddersfield Town.

“I think I will say the majority of the fans were great from the beginning [of my tenure]," said Benitez.

“We know when you start playing and the team is working and showing commitment on the pitch, the fans are happy with that.

“They can see we are trying to improve every single player, they know the difficulty of the Financial Fair Play rules for us and they appreciate we are professionals and are fighting for our club.

“That is very clear and today they showed again this support – and this is the main thing for me, that they know we will be here, trying to our our best every day, every hour."
