Everton boss Marco Silva has come under increasing pressure in recent weeks at Goodison Park.
Everton striker Cenk Tosun has thrown his weight behind Marco Silva on Sky Sports.
Silva has come under pressure at Everton, with the Toffees’ form dipping badly in recent weeks.
Everton have won just three of their last 12 Premier League matches, and have slipped all the way down to ninth place in the table.
Silva’s men were thoroughly outplayed at the weekend by Wolverhampton Wanderers, who came to Goodison Park and won 3-1.
However, Tosun insists that Silva is a very good manager and Everton’s players need to take responsibility for their poor form.
“We have a good team and a good manager with perfect fans,” he said. “We could do better. It’s not the best season we’ve played but everything can a still happen.
“It’s only February so there are still months to go and we want to finish as high as possible.”
Tosun’s words are a boost for Silva, who has lost support rapidly in recent month.
Silva has actually not picked Tosun regularly this season, with the Turkish striker starting just eight times in the league to date.
Tosun did start Everton’s last match, but whether he will retain his place over the coming weeks remains to be seen.
