Former Liverpool manager and player Graeme Souness has told Everton that they must build consistency if they are to stand any chance of avoiding relegation.
On Sunday, Everton recorded a shock 1-0 victory over Chelsea at Goodison Park thanks to Richarlison’s second half goal to close their five-point gap on Leeds United and Burnley above them to just two points.
The Toffees do have just five games left of the season to make a late scramble for safety, but what is on their side is the fact that Everton do have a game in hand on both Burnley and Leeds, with one of the trio set to be relegated alongside already-relegated Norwich City and Watford, whose relegation is likely to be confirmed this weekend.
