Everton are 'physically and mentally weak' claims Jamie Carragher as he suggests Ashley Williams 'wanted to get himself sent off' in Burnley defeat

Jamie Carragher believes the Everton squad is 'nowhere near good enough' and points the finger of blame for their poor form squarely on the players.

The Toffees were beaten 2-1 away at Burnley on Saturday and have won only once away from home in the Premier League this season.

The result saw Sam Allardyce's side slide into the bottom half of the table and they lie only seven points clear of the relegation zone.

Though Carragher believes Allardyce is partly culpable, the former Liverpool defender slammed the players for a record that has seen them win only five of their last 40 away games in the Premier League - better only than West Brom.
