Rafa Benitez insists there's more to come from Everton following comeback win against Southampton in his first game in charge

Everton manager Rafael Benitez has promised there is more to come from his side after a confidence-boosting victory over Southampton in his first match in charge.

The Spaniard, a controversial appointment as a former Liverpool boss, managed at the first attempt what predecessors Carlo Ancelotti and Marco Silva struggled to achieve in their combined three years in charge in getting the players to successfully respond to adversity.

Silva famously failed to win any of the 28 Premier League matches in which his Toffees side went behind, and took only five points from those games.
