David Moyes must learn from his previous mistakes and start Tyrique George in Everton’s match against Burnley at the Hill Dickinson Stadium on Tuesday night.
It is now three months since Everton last tasted three points at the Hill Dickinson Stadium, which came against Nottingham Forest in December.
Three points were picked up on Saturday with an away trip to Newcastle United as Moyes made four changes to his starting XI.
Everton have not secured back-to-back wins in the Premier League since their wins over Bournemouth and Forest.

However, Everton’s home form has been nothing short of dreadful this season, and a player like George could provide the positive spark needed to fire the Blues towards consecutive victories.
In his last outing against Manchester United, George came on with 17 minutes remaining and immediately provided Everton with a boost.

Moyes showed on Saturday just how unpredictable his team selections can be, but Everton have shown they are a different side away from the Hill Dickinson Stadium.
Coming up against a struggling Burnley side, Moyes must select an aggressive starting XI that will take the game to the visitors.
Everton fans have been impressed with George, but he has only been handed one start for the Blues since joining on loan.

The game plan has to be different from what Moyes put together to play at St. James’ Park on Saturday.
Everton dealt extremely well with the task they faced against Newcastle, but some tweaks to the side could be made to face Burnley.
Moyes admitted McNeil is not being treated differently after his failed transfer to Crystal Palace on deadline day.
However, the 62-year-old is in danger of dropping George into the same box as Tyler Dibling if he does not start on Tuesday evening.
The 20-year-old winger has been signed on loan for the season, but he is not being given the regular minutes to showcase what he can provide to this side.
