Everton draw blanks yet again and it might get even worse - Cardiff City v Everton

Everton have been struggling to score goals this season and their problems may be compounded by the departures of Marouane Fellaini and Leighton Baines (Getty Images)

It was just their third Premier League game and Everton already look like they could be struggling for goals, in a transitional year, from a more effective way of football under David Moyes to a more refined one under Roberto Martinez.

With two nil-nil draws and no wins, Martinez’s Everton are lacking the killer finishing that will see them progress and with the likely departure of both Marouane Fellaini and Leighton Baines, the Toffees look light-weight, especially when it comes to creating chances and reinforcements are the order of the day for Martinez as the campaign wears on.
