Everton will reunite with Marco Silva on Saturday.
David Moyes takes the Toffees to Craven Cottage to play Fulham, where Everton can stretch their unbeaten run in the Premier League to five games and potentially move closer to European qualification.
However, Chris Sutton has now shared reason for Everton fans to be concerned when talking up the talent of Harry Wilson.

Chris Sutton tells Everton to be wary of Harry Wilson
Everton tried to sign Wilson on transfer deadline day, sensing an opportunity after the Wales international entered the final 12 months of his contract.
However, the Cottagers rejected the approach, and aim to keep trying to convince the Welshman to pen a new deal despite running the risk of losing him for nothing in July.
With eight goals and four assists in 23 Premier League appearances so far this season, Wilson is proving to be a talisman for Fulham, and Sutton believes Everton will be fearing the sight of the 28-year-old.
The former Celtic striker told BBC Sport: “Everton asked about Fulham forward Harry Wilson on deadline day. He has been a revelation this season and they won’t be looking forward to facing him on Saturday… this is going to be another close game and it smells of another 2-1 to me, but I am not going to go down that road again this week.

“Instead, I’m going for a different scoreline but sticking with a narrow Fulham win. Marco Silva will feel his side deserved something from Old Trafford and it will be him celebrating at the final whistle this week, not Moyes. 1-0.”
If Everton manage to prove Sutton wrong and keep a clean sheet, it would put Moyes closer to making history and beating his own record of just 17 goals conceded in 19 away games during the 2008/09 season.
So far this term, the Toffees have only shipped 11 goals in 12 games away from the Hill Dickinson Stadium.
Home comforts for Tyrique George?
Yes, Everton must be wary of Wilson, but Fulham also need to beware Tyrique George if Moyes hands the 20-year-old his debut.
The England U21 international will be back in the familiar surroundings of west London – where he just left Chelsea to sign for Everton on loan.
David Moyes has surely got to throw George straight in from the start vs Fulham, hasn’t he!? 🤔

Not only that, but George also scored his first Premier League goal against Fulham at Craven Cottage last season, so he should be full of confidence for this clash.
