Morgan Schneiderlin says improving Everton's away form is a key area of focus for next season - and he believes improved results on the road will provide a platform to challenge for Champions League qualification.
The Blues made Goodison Park a fortress in 2016/17, winning 13 of the 19 fixtures and reaching 43 points at home - the best in a league campaign since 1989/90.
But it was a marked difference away from Merseyside, with only 18 points recouped and 20 league goals scored.
“I think that is what separated us from the top six, our away form,” explained the Frenchman.
