Chris Sutton has questioned whether Frank Lampard was right to tear into his players after Everton's 4-0 defeat to Crystal Palace on Sunday.
The Toffees were beaten in the FA Cup quarter-final in humiliating fashion at Selhurst Park and Lampard did not hold back in his interviews after the game.
The 43-year-old asked whether his squad had the 'b******s' to play in big games and said he did not have 'a magic wand to get inside people's heads and change resilience'.
