Everton offloaded a whopping eight players in the summer transfer window.
The Toffees had a busy window both in and out of the club as Sean Dyche reshuffled his squad following a productive season.
Though, as it stands, many of their new additions haven’t settled and as a result, they’re in a fight to survive once again.
Iliman Ndiaye has been the best signing whilst Orel Mangala is starting to really find his form in Everton’s midfield.
The likes of Jake O’Brien and Armando Broja have hardly played, so the jury is certainly out on those two.
On the outgoing front, Amadou Onana has proved to be a major loss as he continues to enjoy a productive season at Aston Villa.
Though, one of their other exits is really struggling at his new club and could be set for a Premier League return in January.

Ben Godfrey could be set for Premier League return
Everton sold Ben Godfrey to Atalanta in the summer ending his four-year spell at the club, which was really inconsistent.

Initially, Godfrey was impressing at Atalanta but now he can’t get a look in and has been reduced to a bit-part role.
In fact, the former England international hasn’t made an appearance in Serie A since August, with just 10 minutes of game time in the Champions League.
It’s believed Godfrey is struggling to adapt to Gian Piero Gasperini’s system and as such, he is keen to leave Italy and two Premier League clubs in the shape of Nottingham Forest and Wolves are leading the race for his signature, according to The Sun.
Godfrey is under contract until 2029.
Lewis Dobbin also struggling
Lewis Dobbin is another Everton sale who is also struggling away from Goodison Park.
Aston Villa signed him on a permanent deal in the summer and immediately shipped him out on loan to Championship outfit West Bromwich Albion.
Dobbin has so far made 15 appearances in the second tier and is yet to register either a goal or an assist.
The 21-year-old is finding it hard to break into the first 11, having only started one game so far.
