Marco Silva: Everton have 'a lot of work to do' after Bournemouth loss | OneFootball

Everton were handed their second Premier League defeat of the season on Sunday, falling 3-1 at Dean Court to see the Toffees fall to 11th place.

Marco Silva’s squad is widely expected to compete for a place in the Premier League top six and the Portuguese is fully aware those goals will not be achieved with similar performances.

“There’s a big frustration because we lost the game and gave some things too easily to our opponent,” Silva told reporters in the tunnel shortly after the final whistle.

“When you come to play away from home you have to be really ruthless and you can’t make mistakes like we did this afternoon.

“[They] won not just the first ball, but the second and the third ball. After a third touch inside our box they scored which means we are not strong enough in the first moment.

“We have a lot of work to do. We have to be more clinical, more aggressive and more solid because we cannot concede goals as easily as we did.

“When they scored the second goal, we were controlling the game, we were creating more moments around their box.

“I was preparing Moise and Bernard to bring fresh players into our attack and then we conceded the second goal.

“It was not a good moment for us, not a good result for sure. It’s a moment for us to learn,” Silva continued in his post-match presser.

“Of course, when you make mistakes like we did this afternoon it’s difficult to win games. We have to learn. We gave too many things easily to them.”

Bournemouth are unbeaten in all five of their Premier League home matches against Everton.
