Having three weeks off as a player is tough. You have to try and stay fresh to make sure you hit the ground running when you return, but the break disrupts your momentum and that can be a challenge. We saw that early in the Brentford game. Against Chelsea, Everton broke up for the international break with a fine win built on intensity. That was gone in the early stages at the Gtech. The Blues were slow to get going, they looked a bit lethargic and were caught out for the first goal.
