An air of optimism may finally be back around us Evertonians after what has been a long period of no hope, just a wish that things will eventually change.
Well, change they have and David Unsworth takes his Everton side down to Leicester, full of fresh faces and returning players. We’re looking for three points on the road, a sentence barely uttered under Ronald Koeman who had one of the worst away records in Everton history. That kind of record, no matter how good your home record might be, is nowhere near the level it needs to be with Everton’s ambitions.
Not to harp on about Koeman for much longer, because he’s gone so let’s keep him that way, but he failed to instil that confidence in the players that we can go to any ground and play them off their own pitch.
But David Unsworth got it right in his press conference this week.
”We’re Everton Football Club, we expect results.”
