Everton’s upcoming clash vs Liverpool might be the turning point for underwhelming manager, Marco Silva, according to ex Toffees coach, Roberto Martinez.
Marco Silva has been poor this season after only four wins from their first 13 league games of the season and presently occupying a spot in the table just two points above the relegation zone.
Rumor has it that David Moyes, Eddie Howe, and Mark Hughes might be replacing him soon but Roberto thinks he might finally get it right vs league leaders, Liverpool.
His words, “That’s a game that would show an incredible mentality from Everton,”
“It’s always difficult to go to Anfield and get a positive result and Liverpool’s home record is as good as it gets.
“So, getting a historic result at Anfield could be the start of a new campaign. It really is more important than a Merseyside derby – Merseyside derbies are very special but I think in this case there’s a lot to win for Everton.
“I was a manager in the Premier League for seven consecutive years, 255 games, and I know that things can change very quickly. The season can change and probably you need an outstanding result that sets the tone and Anfield could be the place.”
“It’s only 13 games into the season,”
“Obviously it hasn’t been a real bright start in terms of getting the points that probably Everton, with the investment, would expect to get in this initial third of the season.
“Still, it’s one third, and sometimes you need to go through pain and trauma as a team to become strong again. The time to make the assessment will be more at the end of the season and see how the campaign has allowed the team to gel together and become as strong as it can.”
