Everton talent Tom Davies targeting Yaya Toure level

Everton youngster Tom Davies is confident that if he keeps working hard, he can reach the level of Manchester City veteran Yaya Toure.

The 18-year-old exhibited that he is on the right track to achieve that as he produced a Man of the Match scoring display against Toure when guiding the Toffees e to a 4-0 win against City at Goodison Park on Sunday.

"Coming into the game, it was a test for me to see where I was as a player, coming up against him," said Davies of Toure.

"What it has shown me is that if I keep working hard I can reach the level they are at.

"To beat Manchester City 4-0 is unbelievable, really. I would never have dreamed I would be in a game or in a team where Manchester City have been beaten 4-0.

"But we have been doing really well in the league and we are starting to find a good rhythm, picking up a few points so long may that continue."
