Trevor Steven: Everton are the Premier League’s most inconsistent team but I’d give manager Marco Silva more time

February 5, 2019

January 29, 2019

Smart signings are possible in the January transfer window, such as Tottenham’s purchase of Dele Alli from MK Dons in 2015 and Leicester’s recruitment of Riyad Mahrez from Le Havre in 2014, but they don’t tend to be big names. Chelsea’s loan deal for Gonzalo Higuain is one of the few; it’s rare to get [...]
