Former Premier League goalkeeper Ben Foster has tipped Sean Dyche to successfully ring the changes at Everton as the scenes at Goodison Park were praised.
The Blues beat AFC Bournemouth on the final day of the Premier League season to stay up as Leicester City and Leeds United will join Southampton in the Championship. The Foxes overcame West Ham United but Abdoulaye Doucoure's strike was enough to maintain their status in England's top-flight.
This summer is pivotal for the former Burnley manager as they face a transitional period amid uncertainty at Goodison Park. Yerry Mina confirmed his departure on the eve of the crunch match as Conor Coady's future remains unclear following his loan on Merseyside.

"Ten minutes of injury time, I was chewing my nails watching that," Foster started speaking on the Football Fill In Podcast.
"Dychey is that powerful manager, he carries a lot of weight so he will say to the players 'he's not going to be in my plans, he's not going to be in my plans' you can imagine there being a huge overhaul there.
"Watching the game with 10 minutes to go, even with 20 minutes to go, they scored the goal but Everton were still giving it a go you know, they were still pushing. Bournemouth, I think the idea, was probably the ideal opponent.
"They were giving it a go, they can't just down tools or whatever, but I was so impressed with the way Everton kept on the front foot but whenever balls getting back to them, they were getting cleared.
"You see what it means to them in the end, I'm not an Everton fan but you can see how much it means to everybody - fair dos. Rocking [the atmosphere] it would've been as well."
