Everton boss Sam Allardyce prematurely ended an interview after he refused to keep talking about his “critics”.

The Toffees beat Huddersfield 2-0 in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon but has come under criticism recently from some Everton fans for his style of football.

“It was an excellent performance,” Allardyce told BBC Sport. “Huddersfield at home have been strong and they were looking to make themselves safe by beating us but we were too good for them.

“It was only missed chances which meant that we didn’t make it more comfortable. It’s a good win and that’s 11 points in six games. We are riding high and are finishing the season strongly.

“We are improving in all areas. We have turned the corner away from home. Huddersfield will survive, they will find the points.

“We shouldn’t keep talking about critics when you’ve took 11 points from six games…“[Walks out of interview]
