Away trips aren’t easy and this is seemingly especially the case for Everton. We just can’t seem to take any sort of quality away from Goodison Park, and this needs to be addressed very quickly lest we exit the European race altogether, never mind any hopes of a top-four finish.
Mr Silva also still enjoys the extremely unwanted record of never coming from behind to win a game, and we are behind in games an awful lot.
