Everton
They are tutored by Sean Dyche and their major problem in the 2023/24 season was down to their attacking department.
The Toffees displayed profligacy in front of goal and their lack of sharpness often came back to hunt them.
The Merseyside-based club will be hoping that with the additions made this summer, they can perform better in the upcoming season.
Everton scored 40 goals in the 2023/24 season, poorer output than 18 other teams in the League and only better than relegated Sheffield United, who scored 35 goals and conceded a staggering 105 goals.
It will be fascinating to see how the Toffees fare in the coming season following the additions made this summer and more signings that will still be made.
Sean Dyche’s side commences the 2024/25 Premier League season, with a home game against Brighton and Hove Albion on August 17, 2024.
