Everton manager Sean Dyche faces significant squad challenges ahead of their Premier League match against Tottenham, with only 14 fit senior players available. Key players are sidelined due to injuries and suspensions, including James Tarkowski, Ashley Young, Seamus Coleman, James Garner, Nathan Patterson, and Youssef Chermiti. Dyche expressed concerns over the team's fitness and financial limitations in addressing the situation, emphasizing the need to work with the current squad to regain fitness. Despite having spent around £40 million on new signings, further transfer activity is unlikely before the window closes. The ongoing challenges have left Dyche considering integrating less experienced players, such as teenager Roman Dixon and recent signing Jake O'Brien, into the lineup.
