Everton have had a stuttering start to the new Premier League campaign despite the changes made to the squad during the summer transfer window.
The Toffees have won just once, drawn thrice and lost twice, and their lack of quality finishing in the final third remains worrying.
Everton have managed to score just eight league goals so far, and the club’s one-time skipper Phil Neville believes adding a new striker to the squad in January could go a long way in guaranteeing manager Marco Silva his job in the long-term.
“I don’t think Silva should be worried about his future, but a good striker can mean a manager keeps his job,” Neville told BBC Sport.
