Everton are beginning to find their form after a shaky start to the campaign, easily disposing of Blackburn 3-0 at Goodison Park. French striker Louis Saha scored in each half to take his tally for the season to six before Joseph Yobo added a third against a Rovers side who rarely threatened.

Toffees boss David Moyes: "I enjoyed the result and the performance. At times we were very good.

"Blackburn made it difficult, particularly in the first half, but we were able to defend their set pieces.

"I think Saha is a terrific player and he's right up there with the best I've ever worked with.

"With the quality of the players we have, we're much better than we've shown so far."

Blackburn boss Sam Allardyce was scathing in his assessment of his team's performance.

"I think we were poor to be honest. We've got no resilience away from home.

"We let ourselves down on set pieces and gave Everton an easy victory. We could have stopped two goals from a corner and a free-kick.

"We're not getting the results we need to avoid struggling this season.

"It's a disappointing result and a disappointing performance but its one we need to get over."
