West Brom's Hodgson taking leaf out of Everton's book

West Bromwich Albion boss Roy Hodgson suggests Everton is the perfect club to watch for those teams not quit established in the Premier League.

As the Baggies prepare for tomorrow's trip to Goodison Park, Hodgson feels that David Moyes' Toffees have the perfect blueprint of how to achieve consistent results to remain in the top flight when you don't have loads of money to spend.

"Everton are the team that teams like ourselves need to have in our sights as a guide as to what is required, to not only stay in this league but to consistently perform well in the league," he said.

"They are always the team just below the big-money teams, if we can call them that. Everton are always making life uncomfortable for them.

"That's what I'd like to see us become if we can continue in the Premier League for some seasons to come."
