Everton will be looking to bounce back to winning ways when they face Brentford in the Premier League on Saturday at Goodison Park.

The Toffees have lost just one game in their last seven league games, but they haven’t picked up a win in their last three.

Once again, Everton find themselves fighting for survival. They are 16th in the league table with only ten points on board.

The Toffees will face Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester City and Nottingham Forest before the end of the year, which makes the home fixtures against Brentford and Wolves absolutely vital.

Kevin Thelwell rightly pointed out that the Toffees have struggled badly financially in the past few years, but things could head in a positive direction with the impending arrival of the Friedkin Group.

The American owners are likely to take full control of the club around mid-December, and Sean Dyche will hope that the new owners will inject cash into the side in January.

What Sean Dyche has said about Everton January window plans

The Toffees signed seven players in the summer transfer window. Two of them arrived on loan, and one joined on a free transfer.

Tim Iroegbunam moved to Goodison Park from Aston Villa as a part of the deal that saw Lewis Dobbin heading the other way.

Jake O’Brien and Illiman Ndiaye were expensive recruits, but the Toffees recouped the money from the sale of Amadou Onana, who moved to Villa Park.

Basically, Everton are operating on a tight budget once again, and they will operate sensibly in the winter market. However, the scenario could change if they have a new owner in place before the window reopens.

Dyche said, as quoted by BBC Sports: “There’s no news, we’re working to the current situation of the club, being very sensible financially. If the Friedkin Group get their hands on the club fully, it might be different.”

Everton need to focus on winning games

The Toffees must concentrate on getting some points on board, as they have some incredibly tough fixtures coming up.

Everton must win their next two home games. Otherwise, they could find themselves in the relegation zone by the end of the year.

The Friedkin group have shown their ruthless side in Italy after two sacking two managers at AS Roma within a space of few months, and they might do the same with Dyche if Everton continue to struggle.
