Everton’s poor week was made much worse this afternoon as they were thrashed in the west Midlands, putting a cruel blow to their hopes of qualifying for Europe next season.
The Toffees were well beaten 3-0 by Wolverhampton Wanderers, who moved into sixth place whilst we sink to nine points adrift of the top seven.
Much of the Goodison Park faithful watched the game from home and they were left reeling by the performance from midfielder Tom Davies – once again.
Raul Jimenez set the tone early in the first-half scoring from the spot before Leander Dendoncker and substitute Diogo Jota piled on the misery in the second half.
Should Everton move on from Tom Davies this summer?
No, he's young!
Yes, get rid!
It was a shocking performance all-round from Carlo Ancelotti’s men and despite the Italian’s attempts to spark some sort of reaction with a tactical change, Everton were sent back to Merseyside with nothing.
Davies was particularly poor in the middle of the pitch – per SofaScore, the 22-year-old was dribbled past twice, won just 50% of his duels and lost possession ten times.
And as a result, many have unleashed at him on social media. Here’s what has been said…
Tom Davies is one of the worst players ive ever seen in a blue shirt.

Tom Davies isn't even a blue either not that it excuses his utterly inept performances honestly get rid of him

It’s a shame Tom Davies has regressed so much from his first full season. Thought there was a future England international there, but in reality he’s League 1 standard. #EFC

Tom Davies has stunk the place out. That 6-yard pass under no pressure that went straight out for a throw-in, sums his performance up.

Tom Davies needs to be moved on. No sentiment or defence can justify his performances. We can’t get to the level needed by accepting mediocrity. He simply isn’t premier league standard. #Everton

I don’t even think Tom Davies is good enough for a top half championship club.

He’s being made a scapegoat for a shocking TEAM performance. Much senior players ie Siggurdson and Walcott are much poorer than him but escape these articles, second one today that blocked my vote against the negative option, interesting that
Absolutely nothing in midfield from right to left, no pace, no brains, no heart, now is the time for wholesale change, if we don’t support Carlo we will regret it.
