da apostaganha: Everton for the most part have always started their Premier League campaigns rather slowly, however, this year we have reach December and the Toffees still seem to be struggling. The other week Everton drew with lowly Wigan Athletic and things are really looking as if they are not going to change any time soon.
da luck: After the game Everton manager David Moyes admitted his side’s current form is worrying after they were held to a goalless draw at home to Wigan. The home side created the majority of the chances but the closest they came was when Marouane Fellaini headed over in the first half and Tim Cahill hit a post in the second. Although enjoying more of the chances Everton could not find the net.
Contrary to the title of the blog, maybe everything is not in place. It is no secret that the club have suffered in front of goal, alluding to the fact that they do not have sufficient firepower to punish even the weakest of defences in the Premier League.
Everton have now not won in seven games and Moyes admits their failure to take their chances is affecting the players and the fans. “It certainly wasn’t their attitude. I questioned it a bit in the last home game against West Brom (a 4-1 defeat) but they went for it today,” said the Toffees manager. It is quickly becoming evident that the club is in desperate need of a player who can find the back of the net on a consistent basis.
With the transfer market reopening next month surely Everton will try and add some much needed firepower. Bill Kenwright rarely loosens those purse strings and if he doesn’t come January I fear for Everton. If poor results continue it will most definitely affect the fans and therefore prove detrimental as the players try to find the form that has eluded them so far this season.
