Marco Silva's position at Everton has come under immense scrutiny in recent weeks, as the Toffees have slipped to 15th position in the league standings after 13 games. The Merseyside club were active as ever in the transfer market and bolstered their ranks with 6 first-team signings worth over £100 million, as they looked to make a mark in the Premier League and qualify for Europe.

Only Norwich City and Watford have lost more league games than Everton this season and the Canaries piled on their misery further this weekend, as Daniel Farke's side registered a shock 2-0 victory at Goodison Park, a result that put Silva on the brink of the sack.

In recent weeks, fans and pundits have voiced their frustration towards the manager and the Portuguese tactician seems like a man living on borrowed time, as Everton continue to slide down the Premier League table with every passing game. Time is running out for the former Hull City boss and results need to improve dramatically in the coming ways for Silva to have a realistic chance of retaining his job for the time being.
