Everton legend and Minnesota coach Heath: I've long worried about the Toffees

Everton legend and Minnesota coach Adrian Heath admits he's long worried about his old club.

Everton need victory against Bournemouth to be sure of Premoer League safety.

"We [Minnesota] played Everton in pre-season, and I'm not sure everything felt right," he told The Times. "If you get your recruitment wrong, then it comes back to bite you in the end, and that has been the biggest problem.

"When you consider what money has been spent and what their major assets are on the field, then it is incredible, really.

"Dychey [Sean Dyche] was a good appointment. The pragmatism that he brings will just about get them over the line, but, as we said this time last year, there have got to be changes.

"We can't go through this again. If we get away with it this time, it looks like it will be because it's a low points total. We have been lucky if that is the case."
