Manager must correct form quickly to avoid relegation danger as his side face a critical match against rock-bottom Wolves
last season. To see it unravel at the Vitality Stadium was confirmation that goodwill has limits and that Lampard must correct form fast to avoid another campaign fraught with relegation danger. The visit of bottom-of-the-table Wolves on Boxing Day is loaded with significance before the trip to Manchester City on New Year’s Eve.
“I agree. It wasn’t good enough. There is somewhere in the middle where we need to get a better balance because we need each other if we want to be successful. I feel it’s the players’ responsibility to play at a higher level of energy and intensity particularly, because that is always the first demand, and the fans will go with them. I’ve got no doubt about that. They have showed us that before. We have responsibility there.
“This is Everton and we’re not representing that as a team at the moment,” said a despairing Conor Coady, who is ineligible to face his parent club on Boxing Day. Supporters who made two round trips totalling more than 1,000 miles in five days would agree. Everton are one place and one point above the relegation zone as a consequence of five defeats in seven league games before the World Cup.
