Yeah I wouldn't mind if the goals came about because of how we were playing but they didn't.

We just were completely shot after the first goal because of the s******* mentality of our 'leaders' at the back and anything we had fell apart. It was mad, absolutely mad.

But they need to go now. And that's on Lampard ultimately to make the decision. Keane should not play for Everton again

How many times do we concede a second goal after the first…just stay in the game and get to half time only one down.

Norwich and Watford stand out - mistake upon mistake.

I thought it was quite telling that Keane was brought off tactically and not as a concussion substitute

Lampard is finding out for himself

Keane and Gomes must be completely gone now.

Coleman I don't think will last that performance and Kenny will get moved over and Mykolenko comes in.

I'm fine with Coleman playing home games as he seems to do alright with it, the energy from the crowd gets him through.

Keane and Gomes shouldn't be seen again

I think tonight was Colemans watershed moment mate. It was an abysmal performance not just as just as captain, but as a professional.

He can't say he's earned his 70k for that. Absolutely finished.

I love the fella as well mate, honestly behind the scenes I know he's a top top man, loves the club, loves the fans, genuinely a top man in a game fully of greedy knobheads.

But he was absolutely destroyed tonight snd he gets targeted most games.

Big learning curve for Lampard's managerial career these last 6 weeks. Thankfully for him, and hopefully us in the long term, is his career has been surrounded by nothing but the elite. Hopefully that will start to rub off on the training, the prep, the mentality of any new signings etc.

This was never going to go amazing straight from the off. I predicted 0 points from City & Spurs and got that - it's Wolves to focus on.Congrats on getting your prediction right

Congrats on getting your forecast right but what’s happening is that Lampard and the team are entering a funnel.

No points from City and Spuds isn’t the problem: the lack of attacking fluency/ongoing defensive problems on show are. So slightly out of form Wolves are almost certain to return to winning ways against Everton.

Then fellow strugglers the team will play after that will be emboldened by the zero points against the aforementioned teams and will play with freedom and also win as they’ll all see Everton fixture as prime opportunity for three points. And so on.

Confidence is everything and once a team enters that funnel where they’re losing to best teams and getting little change out of the lesser teams because it has neither attacking fluency nor defensive solidity then relegation is almost assured.

In the funk they’re in now the players can convince themselves that there’s a good reason why they can’t beat anyone and mentally/tactically collapse not only against likes of Spurs but also against fellow strugglers.

I don’t see Everton getting to 30 points with these players and with Lampard as manager. The graffiti artists who chased away a manager far more qualified than Lampard to keep Everton up have changed the club’s history—and not in a good way.

Because, post-relegation, I see far more chance of an extended spell out of the top flight than of the club bouncing straight back up.
