Everton captain Seamus Coleman has absolutely blasted his teammates after Sunday's 3-0 defeat to Wolves.
The Irishman has questioned Everton's commitment and desire, insisting the team cannot continue to allow their manager to take the fall for poor performances.
"It was shocking, really, really bad," Coleman told Sky Sports.
"No hiding places. They were better all over the pitch.
"We need to ask some serious questions of ourselves. We can all play bad, misplace passes but when the attitude isn't there and the desire isn't there. We got beaten by the better team.
"Maybe we're not where we think are - we're 11th in the table for a reason. As individuals and as a club we expect better. We need to dig in - myself included - as that won't be good enough for this manager. And is most certainly not good enough for this football club with the way I've been brought up through this football club.
"Quality-wise we've got good players but the attitude and desire wasn't there today. We need to have more commitment on daily basis and really come together.
"That won't be good enough for this manager. If we're not giving our all then that will be that, see you later. He's not going to put up with performances like this. As a team we need to be better. And ask ourselves if we're good enough to play for this football club.
"He's a top manager. We can't keep hiding behind managers. We've hid behind managers for long enough."
