Sam Allardyce has claimed Everton are “in a very good position” and that doubt over his future has therefore come as a surprise, despite winning only twice in 11 games and suffering five consecutive away defeats before Saturday’s visit to Burnley.
The Everton manager is facing growing criticism over results, performances and public pronouncements that have alienated many supporters, the latest being that expectations at Goodison Park are no different than at Newcastle United or West Ham, two of his previous clubs.
Allardyce signed an 18-month contract to succeed Ronald Koeman in November but may struggle to survive the summer. The former England manager believes Everton’s problems are deep rooted and that the possibility of drawing level on points with Burnley with victory at Turf Moor is evidence of improvement. Everton were five points above the relegation zone after David Unsworth’s final game as caretaker and are now seven points clear.
