The Blues boss saw his side suffer a disappointing 3-1 defeat on Merseyside, with an error-strewn display showing how much work they still have to do
Frank Lampard was left less than impressed by the "sloppiness" of his Chelsea side during a 3-1 defeat at Everton.
Having secured a standing inside the Premier League’s top four and seen a transfer ban lifted, the mood among the travelling party from Stamford Bridge was buoyant heading into a trip to Merseyside.
Chelsea were, however, sent back to west London with their tail between their legs as Duncan Ferguson enjoyed a dream start to his reign as Everton’s interim boss.
