Andy Gray has expressed his concern over Everton's current position, claiming the club appears to be 'at a crossroads.'
The Blues finished 16th in the Premier League last term, winning three of their final six games to end the season four points clear of the relegation zone. Frank Lampard will be looking to deliver a much-improved campaign on this occasion, though may well require further additions in the transfer window to make this a reality.
Everton's business last summer was severely restricted by Financial Fair Play regulations, with the £1.7million spent on Demarai Gray accompanying four free transfers. As newly-promoted sides such as Fulham and Nottingham Forest continue to strengthen their squads upon their return to the top flight, there is a worry among some supporters that another dogfight at the foot of the table involving the Toffees could be forthcoming.
