Everton finally get what they wanted and Carlo Ancelotti proves it

Everton supporters knew what they were losing when the statement they dreaded eventually dropped at 6pm on June 1 last year.

In Carlo Ancelotti they had a manager they trusted. They had a manager they believed in and wanted to get behind.

This was Carlo Ancelotti the serial winner. The master of winning on the biggest of stages and the master of managing big name players.
