Everton were beaten 5-2 by Liverpool in the Merseyside Derby in the Premier League on Wednesday.

The result leaves Marco Silva on the brink of the sack.

It was always going to be a tall order for the Toffees to get something out of the game, especially given their rotten record at Anfield.

But having seen Liverpool’s starting XI they might have fancied themselves.

Jurgen Klopp left Mo Salah, Roberto Firmino and Jordan Henderson on the bench, handing starts to Adam Lallana, Xherdan Shaqiri and Divock Origi instead.

The Reds’ fringe players came through though, with Shaqiri notching his first of the season and Origi hitting a brace.

Everton just couldn’t cope with the hosts, who probably produced some of their best football so far this season.

It was another hard day at the office for Michael Keane, who looked particularly shaky as part of a back three including Yerry Mina and Mason Holgate.

He scored for the visitors to pull the scoreline back to 2-1, but arguably he could have done better on three of Liverpool’s five goals.

Keane has been in poor form of late which has resulted in him missing the last England squad, and his display here could make an international recall unlikely.
