Everton suffered defeat at the hands of Manchester United on Sunday, a result which brought an end to their three-game winning streak in the Premier League.
Goals from Paul Pogba and Anthony Martial were enough to sink Marco Silva’s side, who found the net courtesy of Gylfi Sigurdsson’s penalty but mostly struggled to get going in the attacking third.
The performance of Theo Walcott, signed from Arsenal in January by Sam Allardyce, attracted plenty of discussion on social media as plenty of supporters were not happy with the performance of the experienced England international.
Walcott failed to threaten United’s defence and also left Seamus Coleman exposed behind him by not tracking back to help quell Martial, who ended up being the Man of the Match after scoring United’s second after winning the first-half penalty.
It seems plenty have had enough of Walcott and are demanding a change from Silva, as we have identified some of the best reactions below.

Coleman and Walcott both ball watching for the 2nd, Walcott offered nothing for me for a few weeks, think Gueye will get a red!

Walcott needs dropping, just not doing it at moment. Need to get Tosun in the centre now, clear Richarlison aint a CF.

For a very talented player, Walcott drives me up the wall sometimes
