Rivalry heavyweight Everton needs to close the gap to Liverpool, asserted Moyes
In the heart of Merseyside, the city's rival football clubs, Everton and Liverpool, are gearing up for their next Premier League encounter at Anfield this Saturday. Everton, fresh from their move to a new 53,000-seat stadium, are looking to shake off several difficult seasons and reclaim their former glory.
David Moyes, Everton's manager, recognises the challenge ahead. With Liverpool currently a strong contender for the Champions League and boasting a significant financial advantage, bridging the gap between the two clubs is no easy feat.
Moyes' men have shown promising signs, with an unbeaten run in four games. However, the Scot has not tasted victory against Liverpool in 22 matches across various clubs, a statistic he will be eager to change.
The financial disparity between the two clubs is evident. Liverpool spent nearly £450 million on new players in the summer, while Everton is currently rebuilding its squad. Moyes, however, stresses that earning the right to spend money comes from winning and being in big competitions.
Despite the challenges, there is a fresh sense of optimism at Everton. The move to their new stadium has injected a renewed energy into the club, and Moyes is focused on shortening the gap between the two Merseyside giants.
His comments suggest a long-term plan for Everton to close the gap with Liverpool. Moyes acknowledges the challenge of narrowing the 'news' in the coming years, but he is realistic about the task at hand.
Everton last tasted victory at Anfield in 1999, a statistic they will be eager to change. Liverpool also made headlines with their own transfer activity, setting a British record by spending £125 million on Alexander Isak.
As Everton enters a rebuilding phase, the focus is on steady progress and gradual improvement. The upcoming match against Liverpool presents an opportunity for Everton to measure their progress against their rivals and take another step towards closing the gap.
