Everton produced a pitiful performance against Sunderland on Sunday afternoon.

David Moyes’ men didn’t look like a team that needed a win to keep their hopes of European qualification alive.

Everton were undone in the second half when Sunderland made proactive substitutions, so Moyes must take some accountability for the defeat.

How do you even sum that up? 😡

After the game, Toffees supporters sent a pretty stern message to the CEO Angus Kinnear, and they all said similar things.

Everton fans urge Angus Kinnear to sack David Moyes

Replying to the TalkingPoint below, many Everton fans have called for Kinnear to sack Moyes and bring in a more progressive manager.

What would you say to Angus Kinnear after THAT loss to Sunderland? 😤

Something has to change… 😭

Some Toffees supporters want Andoni Iraola to replace Moyes, with the Spaniard leaving Bournemouth at the end of the season.

That seems unlikely, though, as Kinnear came out in support of Moyes earlier this week.

“Whilst the media and other fanbases clamour for frequent managerial change, we value the stability that David brings and the ability this gives the whole Club to plan for the long term,” the Everton CEO wrote in the Official Matchday Programme.

There’s no doubt Moyes has done a solid job by stabilising the club, but more should be expected after he broke the club’s biggest ever net spend last summer.

The Scotsman shelled out £97m (based on initial fees) on nine new signings, and yet the Toffees have only improved their points tally by one since last season.
