Everton legend Peter Reid is baffled by their failure to replace Romelu Lukaku.

Reid is also unhappy with Farsad Moshiri seeking to ease expectations.

"Everyone knew Lukaku was going," he told the Daily Mail.

"So go and get one. And when the owner comes out and says lower expectations? No, you are wrong mate. As an Everton fan, expectations are higher than that, so I disagree.

"There is a lack of confidence and it is showing on the park because if we are not careful we are in a dogfight and I am not sure, looking at them at the moment, that they are ready for that."
