Everton, a club with a rich history and traditions, was in an extremely uncomfortable position. It seems that during last season, the team held the right football fixtures and were only three points behind European places. But in the new season, things are not going well so far. Not too confident separation from the relegation zone – not what the fans and the management expect from the club.
The club was approaching the new season with serious intentions. The head coach repeatedly stated that. But, despite the strengthening of the team in the summer offseason, Everton was not able to impose a fight even for a comfortable 6th place. Among the summer beginners, it should be noted:
● Alex Iwobi;
● Moise Kean;
● Jean – Philippe Gbamin;
● Andre Gomes.
Of all the listed newcomers, only the last is over 25 years old. And Moise Kean, by football standards, still has to open himself, the guy is only 19 years old. Perhaps the club released a lot of players of the old clip at once, and the new ones have not yet managed to adapt to the coach’s strategy to demonstrate decisive football fixtures. In general, the team is not catastrophically behind the coveted five, but the team lacks implementation.
If the coach can solve the problems with goals by rotating the attackers or by rearranging the midfield line, then things are alarming with the defence. In every match of the Premier League, Everton misses the goals. That is the most vulnerable place, because of which the club is not able to fight for high places.
Which Everton score tournament offers the hope
If the “toffee” is not going smoothly in the Premier League, then things are encouraging in the English League Cup. The club began its journey with 1/32, a rather early stage for both the top division team. Nevertheless, the Everton score in the round 1/32, and after him, 1/16 were very confident, the victories were gained because of their high class. In 1/8, Marco Silva’s wards got Watford. Everton dictated the match, and through the efforts of Mason Holgate and Richarlison, the victory of the guests was crowned – 2: 0.
In the quarter-finals awaits a severe test. They came across rivals from Leicester – a club that is now in excellent combat form. But perhaps the success of the Foxes in the Premier League will force them to sacrifice some tournament for the sake of further struggle for the championship in the Premier League, and due to this, the Everton score will continue to improve in the English League Cup.
If you run a little ahead and imagine that the Toffees will go to the semi-final, they will face a tough opponent. A Merseyside Derby could be on the cards in the Cup semi-finals, which could be more enjoyable for fans of two teams from the same city.
