Everton were beaten 2-0 at Manchester United on Saturday, a loss that spoke for their inability to break a cycle of results
There is a grim inevitability about at present. Winless in the league since December 16, they appear locked in a cycle where the same events keep happening on a seemingly indeterminable loop. Breaking the chain has so far proven beyond them. Everton have been plagued by poor finishing and an inability to chase games since the start of the season, but a third debilitating trend has emerged in recent weeks that should be of equal concern to manager Sean Dyche.
Advertisement “It’s tight around the pitch,” Dyche responded, when asked specifically about the reasons for his continued selection of Godfrey, refusing to be drawn on any one player. But this was not just about individual failings. There was a sense, faced with a side that struggles when deprived of space in behind, that Everton’s approach played into United’s hands.
