Another defeat for Everton was all their trip down to the south coast to face Bournemouth on Saturday afternoon provided.
Everton came into the game on the back of their first defeat following a run of four consecutive games unbeaten.
There was just a two-point cushion separating Everton and the relegation prior to the game with Sean Dyche’s men struggling to turn draws into wins.
January signings are being eyed by The Friedkin Group with the Blues not looking capable of picking up three points on a regular basis.
And their dismal display down on the south coast was made clear as the Bournemouth fans jokingly sang about what they saw from the visitors.

Bournemouth fans jokingly sing about Everton’s poor display
The game on the south coast between Bournemouth and Everton was threatened by cold weather earlier in the week, but it went ahead.
After what they saw in the 90 minutes, some Everton fans will have been wishing that was not the case.
The Athletic journalist Patrick Boyland was in the press box at the Vitality Stadium and shared the joking chant heard directed from the home fans.
“How do you watch this every week?” sang the Bournemouth fans towards the visitors on Saturday afternoon.
Everton are looking to sign a new forward this month and that need may have been made even more clear after Armando Broja went off through injury.
Bournemouth fans’ chant sums up Everton’s struggles
Everton have been praised for their set pieces this season, but their general play has left a lot to be desired.
That can be seen through their mere three victories in the Premier League this term during the opening 19 games.
The first half was nothing short of a disaster from Dyche’s side who showed very little going forward.
| First half | Bournemouth | Everton |
|---|---|---|
| xG | 1.33 | 0.17 |
| Big chances | 5 | 0 |
| Total shots | 15 | 5 |
| Saves | 0 | 4 |
Jack Harrison has been criticised this season and his replacement on Saturday Jesper Lindstrom was dragged at half time.
Dyche’s side have looked fairly solid in defence this term, but their attack has been toothless.
