Everton fullback Lucas Digne admits manager Carlo Ancelotti is determined to improve their defending.

Having seen Sheffield United defeat Chelsea, Wolves and Tottenham in their previous three home games, the Blues beat the Blades 1-0 at Bramall Lane on Monday while preventing the hosts from registering a shot on target.

“We are working on more tactical things defensively," Digne told Everton's official website.

“For me, it is to have a good line with the back four, to go back straight [when retreating towards his own goal], to jump at the right times, to know where you have to be in every situation. Small details to complete your game.

“I never forget I am a defender first. I have to defend well.

“When you are looking at videos every week and seeing your mistakes, why a pass has been missed, you have to learn.

“It is better to see the wrong thing you did than the good thing. You learn a lot from the mistakes you make."
