Silva to be given Hammers game. Ten Hag in the wings?

According to The Telegraph, the Blues hierarchy are concerned about the team's current form and Silva's ability to rectify it but they don't intend to make a change in the manager's hotseat before the home clash with the Hammers.

Jason Burt reports that, "Silva has met with Everton's majority shareholder Farhad Moshiri twice in the last few weeks and believes that the club will give him a little more time and there is certainly a will for him to succeed in what is the second year of a three-year contract."

Over at MailSport, Simon Jones claims that a board meeting is scheduled for tomorrow but that Farhad Moshiri backs Silva for now.

Meanwhile, the inevitable rumour-mongering over potential replacements should Silva get the boot at Goodison has begun, with Ten Hag emerging as an early candidate according to "exclusives" from 90Min and FotMob, while clickbait gossip site Football Insider claim that David Moyes is contention for the role.
