Description
Everton caretaker manager David Unsworth has described Sunday's game against Watford as a "cup final" but while that fixture could be his last match in charge, the bigger issues at the Blues continue to loom large.Head of Sport David Prentice is joined by experienced ECHO football writer Chris Beesley, podcast regular Gavin Buckland and we also blood one of Old Hall Street's youngsters, Adam Jones to discuss the hot topics at Goodison this week.Some of the main issues on our correspondents' lips are the three Ss - Sandro, Steve Walsh and Big Sam.Dubbed as potentially one of the best bargain buys of the summer, just what has happened to Sandro Ramirez?No goals and not in the squad for the last four matches - including the trip to Lyon when Unsworth started without a recognised striker.Is there any way back for him at the Blues?And what about the man who scouted him and recruited the rest of Everton's summer signings Steve Walsh?While Ronald Koeman carried the can for the team's failures this season as manager, where does the director of football fit in with such shortcomings? Do the Blues need a major overhaul off the pitch too?And then of course there's the issue of the new manager. Should the club look for a short-term fix before regrouping at the end of the season and if so does renowned Premier League 'firefighter' Sam Allardyce fit the bill or could they attract a more deluxe model in the shape of veteran Dutch coach Guus Hiddink?
