Everton don’t have a plan to break down the opposition

Everton’s home form is ultimately what’s going to cost them in the race for the European spots this season.

It seems that when Moyes’ side have the onus on them to attack games, they really struggle, and that’s a coaching issue.

The Toffees manager has always excelled at playing a pragmatic and counter-attacking style of football, which is why the away form has been so impressive.

But, Moyes is evidently struggling to deliver a clear tactical plan to his players to break down a low-block at the Hill Dickinson Stadium.

The handbrake needs to come off, and more attacking options like Adam Aznou and Nathan Patterson at full-back would be a good starting point.
