Why has Everton’s attack been so underwhelming so far this season?

4,129 Comments

Everton’s popular attacking assets have underwhelmed Fantasy Premier League managers so far this season.

After two matches, they have scored just once, only Crystal Palace finding the net fewer times than the Toffees at this stage.

Perhaps we should not be too surprised to see Marco Silva’s men struggle in front of goal at this stage.

During their pre-season campaign, they scored just three goals in seven matches, with Richarlison (£8.0m) the only key figure missing for most of it.

One was registered against Kenyan side Kariobangi Sharks, while Monaco and Mainz were the only other teams to concede against Everton.

The Toffees drew blanks in four of their summer friendlies, against FC Sion, Wigan Athletic, Sevilla and Werder Bremen.

Of those who found the back of the net, Joe Williams and Lewis Gibson are not first-team regulars, the former now a permanent Wigan player, while Seamus Coleman (£5.5m) is the only summer goal-scorer to have played in either Premier League match so far this season.

Accordingly, ahead of a Gameweek 3 trip to Aston Villa, Fantasy managers might be looking to move on their Everton attackers.

We have assessed the underlying statistics from their first two matches of the campaign to find out if the Toffees have simply been unlucky not to score more often, or if there are some tangible reasons for concern.

            Arsenal will most certainly score in emirates. Not much chances for assist
            Don't expect much from him.

    I only have one Liverpool defender in VVD. Considering they're playing Arsenal is it worth going 352 and benching VVD for McGinn?

    Other defenders are Lundstram, Digne, WWB & Kelly

    It is showing projected score of
    King - 2.90
    Dendoncker - 2.75

        I've considered him but KDB looked incredible last week and I think Sterling could end up top FPL scorer this season. It's an easy change if needed but he may not start this week and may only get up to 60 minutes if he does.

        Wolves rested Johnny, Neves and if Doherty isn't fit Traore will slot in without issue due to him playing just a few minutes over the past few weeks. The 3 cbs and keeper don't need rest. So that's the back 6 sorted. Jota got a breather last night and Jiminez got 15 mins off too. So hoping overall they won't be affected but will be more match sharp than Burnley if anything

    Wish last week I knew I was going to WC this gw. Would definitley swap jota(vs manutd) to pukki (vs newcastle)
    Although I don't own him now on WC that was a no brainer move to be made.

        Only Son. I swapped wilson + salah to kdb and kane but I wanted son badly. It needed 3 transfers so played WC and changed some other things too.
        Main reason was getting laporte and son for their coming games

    I like Rashford over Martial, especially now he’s going to be on most pens. However, the saving would allow me to upgrade Mina + VVD. So:

    A) Rashford, Mina, VVD
    B) Martial, Robbo, Digne

    Thanks!
