Jonjoe Kenny was floating after helping Everton to victory over Leeds.

Kenny was so outstanding playing out of position at left-back that Leeds withdrew exceptional right-sider Raphinha at half-time.

The 24-year-old Everton's player's performance was all the more impressive for his paucity of competitive football this season.

“I wasn't playing but it was down to me [to regain place], I looked at myself and changed a lot of things, I didn't make excuses anymore and forced my way back in," Kenny told evertontv.

“It [personal change] was my mindset of, 'I want to play for Everton'.

“I want to be the best player I can.

“I am a local lad but I want to show everyone what I am about.

“It is not just lying down and letting the bad times take over.

“I had a lot of lows and that is part of football – but those moments mean nothing when you are this high."
