Everton 3 Bolton 0: The striker who has got those Jo blogs going

They will doubtless continue reaching for the stars at Manchester Citybut Jo's debut on loan at Evertonprovided proof that money alone is no guarantee of success.At £19million from CSKA Moscow, the Brazilian striker hardly put a dent in City's limitless finances but was expected to make an impact on rival defences. A return of one Barclays Premier League goal by the turn of the year fell some way short, but early Goodison impressions suggested it might not be entirely his fault.Amazing transformation: Jo netted twice on his Everton debut EVERTON 3 BOLTON 0: The action as it happenedBOLTON WANDERERS FC NEWS FROM ACROSS THE WEBEVERTON FC NEWS FROM ACROSS THE WEBThe supremely self-confident two-goal match-winner bore no resemblance to the player whose City failings suggested his career in England might prove as short as his name. Such was the 21-year-old's swagger that it left Everton fans bombarding the club'swebsite with pleas to sign him on a permanent basis — Jo blogs, if you like.As he reflected on winning a penalty for the first goal and scoring the other two, Jo could hardly have been more effusive about his new colleagues or more pointed about why he struggled at City.'I had forgotten just how good it feels coming off the pitch after everything has gone right for you,' he said. 'It was great to have that buzz back, and it was down to being part of a settled side, rather than an all-star team of strangers. The lads here are all mates. At City the players are still trying to get to know each other.'

Jo brilliantly controlled a ball that dropped over his shoulder before sweeping a left-foot volley into the bottom corner. Arteta had been substituted by the time Dan Gosling's last-minute cross was handled by Mark Davies, and there was only one candidate for the penalty. Jo duly obliged. Three and easy: Jo converts from the spotBoltonmanager Gary Megson pulled no punches as he reflected on his side's failure. He said: 'We were shocking. Our best player was Chris Basham, who only went on for the last 30 minutes. I can't explain it and I can't defend it.'EVERTON (4-4-1-1): Howard 6; Hibbert 6, Jagielka 7, Lescott 6, Baines 6 (Yobo 82min); Gosling 6, Arteta 7 (Van der Meyde 86), Neville 6, Osman 7; Cahill 6 (Rodwell 77); Jo 8.Booked: Hibbert.BOLTON WANDERERS (4-4-2): Jaaskelainen 6; O'Brien 5, Cahill 6, Puygrenier 5 (Basham 60, 6), Samuel 6; Steinsson 5, M Davies 5, Muamba 6 (Smolarek 60, 6), Taylor 5; K Davies 6, Makukula 5 (Riga 83).Booked: M Davies.Man of the match: Jo.Referee: Peter Walton. EVERTON 3 BOLTON 0: The action as it happenedBOLTON WANDERERS FC NEWS FROM ACROSS THE WEBEVERTON FC NEWS FROM ACROSS THE WEB
