Everton manager David Moyes speaking after their 2-0 defeat by Wolves in the Carabao Cup: "I was hugely disappointed and probably a bit frustrated. I thought the first half should have been a 0-0 game. "I didn't think that they had any real big chances to score. We gave away an absolute poxy goal that you can't believe.

Wolverhampton Wanderers head coach, Vitor Pereira has heaped plaudits on Tolu Arokodare for his impressive performance in the club's Carabao Cup victory

Moyes gave Everton’s £40 million signing Tyler Dibling his first start following his big-money move to the Hill Dickinson Stadium. Everton fans were hopeful that the 19-year-old would show why the Toffees paid so much for his services. Unfortunately, they will have to be patient after a muted outing.

Marshall Munetsi and Tolu Arokodare fired struggling Wolves into the EFL Cup fourth round after a narrow win over Everton. Victory brings some relief for Wolves, who beat West Ham in the last round, after the worst league start in their history that has left them bottom of the Premier League.

Wolverhampton Wanderers’ worst start to a league season in the club’s history was compounded by Saturday’s dismal 3-1 home loss to Leeds United and striker Jorgen Strand Larsen believes they are in desperate need of a change in mentality.

Calvert-Lewin, one-week fitter, continued to win fouls, take the ball in, act as a focal point and, crucially, arrowed in the club’s first open-play goal of the season. He also won the free kick that Stach scored from.

That will be highlighted by victory against Everton, albeit it was a much-changed side from that which won at Molineux in the league last month. Both Wolves' victories in the EFL Cup have come against Premier League opposition and they will take heart from those as they search for a first league win.

Leeds fell behind early but roared back with three goals before halftime to beat Wolves, who are now without a point from their first five games of the Premier League season, 3-1 at Molineux Stadium on Saturday.

After last season’s mantra from Vítor Pereira of “points and then pints”, this is proving the hangover from hell.
