Everton youngster earning the plaudits at Bury

Bury boss David Flitcroft has praised Hallam Hope after the on-loan Everton striker scored in each of his first two games for the League Two outfit. The 20-year-old followed his debut goal at Northampton with the opener in Tuesday's win against Bristol Rovers.

"Everton want to develop players in their system," said Flitcroft.

"We were lucky that [Everton manager] Roberto [Martinez] trusted us with one of his players. The way he [Hope] took his goal was outstanding."
