Former Everton boss Sam Allardyce has sung the praises of Richarlison.

Allardyce believes Richarlison is turning into one of the Premier League's best forwards after the Brazilian scored a stunning solo goal to help the Toffees beat Crystal Palace.

"Richarlison is turning into one of the best players up front in the Premier League," he said.

"We saw that by the goal he scored and the header he got for the second goal. That's a big relief because goals are going to make the difference in any team

"I think Ancelotti is relieved at Dominic Calvert-Lewin scoring goals and I'm disappointed he didn't get two today because that was an easy miss. I wanted him to score that goal to keep it going. It might not affect him because he's in good form."
