5 negatives we can take from the start of Everton’s season

Too reliant on Romelu Lukaku for goals right now

Lukaku

Having scored 15 goals so far this term, that haul significantly lags behind the current top four in Manchester City (24), Arsenal (23), Liverpool (24) and Chelsea (21).

The Premier League’s second highest goalscorer on seven strikes right now, it’s fantastic for Toffees supporters that Romelu Lukaku has rediscovered his mojo but on the other hand, that’s almost half of Everton’s goals.

Ronald Koeman’s truly are too reliant on Lukaku for goals right now meaning that the likes of big money summer arrival Yannick Bolasie, Kevin Mirallas and Ross Barkley need to step up.

Barkley is currently the Toffees’ second highest goalscorer right now on three strikes across all competitions.
