Rafa Benitez's dream start at Everton has turned into a NIGHTMARE... with no cash to splash, an injury crisis and woeful form, he could be hurtling towards the sack already - and a heavy defeat by Liverpool could push angry fans over the edge

As 'Hey Jude' rang around the Brentford Community Stadium on Sunday afternoon, one particular lyric perfectly summed up the dismal situation Everton currently find themselves in.

'Take a sad song and make it better' came through the loud speaker as the Toffees' players trudged over to their supporters after a 1-0 loss to the Bees, a result which extended their winless run to seven matches over two long and frustrating months for the fans.

In that moment, the away end was livid at their underperforming stars - who came over to applaud them for making the long journey for Merseyside - but Rafa Benitez's players were met with a barrage of abuse.
