The Clarets are without a win in 11 PL games as Sean Dyche‘s side have hit a sticky patch following a stunning start to the season.

Like any set of football supporters, once somebody is appointed then you know you are stuck with them for at least a certain period of time, so you do try to look for positives.

While there was dejection for Everton, Burnley were able to celebrate the end of a 12-game winless run, reaching the 40-point mark and a Premier League first.

The Blues finished the match with 10 men and then a barrage of boos from the sold-out away end following Ashley Williams’ dismissal with a straight red card for flinging an elbow at Barnes in the closing stages.

Questioned on the poor style of play he has Everton performing, Allardyce says that “Style of play is about commitment to the football club…’ and winning”.

Cenk Tosun scored his first goal for the Toffees to send them into half time with a slender lead, but Burnley deservedly turned the game around in the second half courtesy of goals from Ashley Barnes and Chris Wood.

If you decide to appoint Allardyce then you’re going to get some quite boring football that will keep you safe from relegation but it won’t exactly excite the fans so there’s less leeway when results don’t go your way. We need to perform better’.

Saturday’s defeat marked Coleman’s 250th game in an Everton jersey and his first start since returning from a thigh injury.

Sadio Mane’s goal in the second half ensured there was no joy for Newcastle manager Rafa Benitez, whose Liverpool team won the Champions League in 2005.

“Manchester City want us to rehabilitate him so we will do that”.

Lennon, who made 77 appearances for Everton, returned to action for the Merseyside club in August having not been part of the match-day squad for the final nine games of the 2016-17 season. That’s not an easy thing to do. From the free kick, the ball was swung to the back post where Lennon arrived, but Mee was unable to get a telling touch and Pickford was happy to gather the loose ball.

‘This is most chances created we’ve had away from home since I’ve been here. It sounds easy but you’re 1-0 down, you’re on a tough run, it can be tricky to regain that feeling. It ended a miserable performance which has been profiled here.
