Everton have got no heart

You can’t see Everton mounting a fightback or gritting their teeth and getting on with it when the going gets tough and that’s one reason why they won’t be able to beat Liverpool on Wednesday night.

Klopp’s got the lads believing in themselves and they’re amazing at grabbing points when things are going against them. Late goals, set-pieces, come-from-behind wins, we’ve got it all in our locker. Silva’s side can’t say that.

Their latest loss, against Leicester, came as they played well for most of the game but folded once Jamie Vardy equalized and the Toffies eventually lost in extra time. With Silva’s future under extreme question, the Portuguese gaffer can’t seem to be able to motivate his squad and the demoralised mob currently sit just one place outside the relegation zone.

Everton haven’t won any of the last 22 Merseyside Derbies – an incredible statistic that highlights how much the Blue half have let themselves drift behind the dominant force around the city. Liverpool have also scored at least two goals in their last 14 league games at Anfield and you can’t see a side who have scored just 14 times this season netting enough times to win.
