Everton are still lacking attacking firepower.
The Toffees made seven new additions in the summer transfer window but missed out on signing Lyon winger Ernest Nuamah.
So, they still remain light on the flanks and should consider launching a proposal for a highly-rated Championship attacker.

Everton should try to sign Wilfried Gnonto
Everton are lacking a dynamic wide player so they should reignite their interest in Leeds winger Wilfried Gnonto in January.
The Toffees had a £23m bid rejected for Gnonto over the summer but it’s thought an offer worth £30m could be enough to land his signature.
The Italy international has registered three goal involvements in seven Championship outings so far this season, operating off both flanks.
If Everton were to sign him, it’d be a game-changing deal as they don’t currently have a wide player as explosive and dynamic.
Gnonto could be the difference between going down and staying up.
Wilfried Gnonto underlying statistics
Gnonto’s underlying statistics make for very impressive reading.
The 20-year-old ranks in the top eight per cent for non-penalty goals compared to his positional peers around Europe, as per FBref.
He also sits in the top 11 per cent for clearances per 90, evincing his willingness to track back and defend – a trait that’s needed in Dyche’s team.
Everton really should make a fresh approach for Gnonto in January.
