LIVERPOOL: Gylfi Sigurdsson’s stunning goal against his former club maintained Everton’s unbeaten record under Sam Allardyce with a 3-1 win on Monday that left Swansea rooted to the foot of the Premier League. The 28-year-old Icelandic international left Swansea for a record £45 million ($60 million) in the close season and his 30-yard effort in the second half illustrated why Everton wanted him so badly. “The mood in the dressing room is very flat,” Swansea manager Paul Clement told the BBC. “I’m a confident person and believe in myself,” Rooney told Sky Sports. He came in from the left wing after receiving the ball from Rooney and unleashed an unstoppable right-footed curling effort into the far top corner.
