Tough to take a defeat today, Everton were poor but we rarely looked like unlocking them.
His pass completion rate was 55% which is poor I know, but he was far from the only one.
His match rating was 6.23, which besides his sending off atSpurs is his worst this season .


Harris actually rated lower and Arter, Camerasa and Gunner were all only a tenth or so better.


The passing overall was terrible, but you have to feel sorry for a player stuck with the ball and no one making an angle for them to pass to. Happened so many times today.

At one point mind when Morrison passed it straight to an Everton player 30 yards out after Bamba had had too many touches and dropped him in the brown stuff I thought we were match fixing!

If you are going to play 4 central midfielders to basically nullify the opposition and make the game scrappy, with your best (only) flair player on the bench then this isn’t a surprising outcome.
