Two of Jordan Pickford’s children will be mascots at Goodison Park on Sunday, clear evidence that facing Southampton isn’t just a normal game for the England No 1 or anyone else at Everton.
While Pickford will stick to his normal routine, and wave to the same fan in the Gwladys Street End in his warm-up, he is fired up for his 160th and last appearance at the stadium, with the club going to a new home next season.
‘We’ll be playing for the memory of winning the last home game at Goodison,’ he acknowledges.
