​Everton manager Silva focused on keeping Walcott going

Everton manager Marco Silva is very happy at the impact of Theo Walcott since the start of the season.

Walcott has been a revelation for Everton on the right side, netting two goals and grabbing an assist in the opening three games.

While the Blues drew two of those games, Silva is very happy with Walcott so far. And he wants even more from his English star.

Silva said to The Mirror: "Not just today but he had a very good game in the last game at home as well. He repeated a good game, a fantastic attitude and it is important that he scored a goal and the red card to Bournemouth is on him as well.

"He is in a good moment. It is our job to keep him at this level.

"England? I am here to support our players, to develop our players, to do everything to put them playing at the highest level. I want Theo enjoying his football and he is doing well."
