From the source
Everton’s slow start has exposed a familiar problem: they struggle to turn promising spells into goals. David Moyes’ side have scored eight times in eight Premier League matches, conceding nine while collecting 10 points from two wins, four draws and two defeats.
Thierno Barry has scored three league goals, but the squad offers little senior cover through the middle, leaving Moyes heavily reliant on one centre-forward. Summer departures made that shortage harder to ignore.
Iliman Ndiaye joined Manchester City for a reported £60 million, while Beto left for £15 million. Barry has carried the central-striker workload, with academy forward Braiden Graham still short of top-flight experience.
