MARTIN KEOWN TALKS TACTICS: Everton need to be bolder if they are to solve scoring crisis with the Toffees on course to finish this season with just 26 goals... never before has a Premier League side survived with such a painfully low total

Everton's lack of goals in their last 13 games makes for alarming reading: 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0. This has now reached crisis point. If they don't start scoring, they are destined to drop out of the Premier League.

Everton have only scored 17 goals all season and, remarkably, just two from open play since October — screamers from Demarai Gray and Seamus Coleman against Manchester City and Leeds respectively.

The rest have come from corner kicks and the penalty spot. Goalscoring is a major issue for Everton right now.
