The fit-again midfielder said afterwards: "I enjoyed myself - not only because I scored two goals but also because the performance in general was very good. It gives us the confidence to push on.
"It has been a difficult start to the season for me. I hope I can keep going, be injury-free and play my best football.
"Like the Premier League and Champions League, the Carabao Cup is very important for us. We want to attack every competition and win every game."
