    Watford 3-1 Everton

    Still signs of life from Everton - more so now than for much of the game - but all too little, too late you feel.

    Everton have to push forward and try to get something out of this game. 

    The delivery is what has been really missing for Everton today. We've seen with the corners where they have been easy for Gomes to claim - as a goalkeeper you love that.

    Ronald Koeman will be very disappointed they have not been able to capitalise on good positions.

    And he missed anyway. Romelu Lukaku looks to prod home Gerard Deulofeu's cross  - turn it in and you'll set up a grandstand finish in search of a third - but skews it wide, and is called out for offside anyway.

    Heurelho Gomes launches a sliced clearance out of play and Aaron Lennon is brought on for Leighton Baines. Right winger for left-back in a final throw of the dice for Everton.

    Midfielder Ben Watson, briefed with shoring up the final 10 minutes of what's looking like a Watford victory, comes on for the two-time goalscorer Stefano Okaka.

    I am surprised it has taken Everton until the 78th minute to put Deulofeu on the left-hand side, because he can cause problems there.

    He can cut back inside into the box and defenders don't want to have to foul him.

    Again the Watford defence closes up on the beginnings of an Everton opening as Enner Valencia is crowded out by Sebastian Prodl. 

    Frustration is bubbling. What's its boiling point? James McCarthy raises the temperature dial with a nudge on a Watford body trying to delay him taking a free-kick.

    Fifteen minutes. Everton need three goals to win, two to somehow claw themselves back onto level terms. 

    But what little fight there was has long since gone from Ronald Koeman's XI.

    Looks like Everton are facing a not-so-merry Christmas

    George Powell: Garbage from Everton. Can't defend, can't attack. Just what exactly are we paying our players and manager for

    Stavros Makrozachopo: Since that demoralising defeat from Chelsea, Everton look a different side.

    Johnny Magrinho: If Everton can't cope with Watford then Xmas could be a very bleak time for the club. Arsenal, Liverpool & Leicester... Ouch!

    Mark's hit the nail on the head there. Everton have looked short in the entire 'knowing what to do with the ball' category.

    Okaka is going to pick and choose the times he is going to run, and he has been very effective in doing so.

    He was a little bit quiet at the start of this half, up until he scored.

    What's been surprising about Everton is a lack of organisation, a lot of hopeful balls where they seem to have no idea of each other's runs.

    If I told you Watford were going above West Brom with this win, would you be surprised? 

    What about if that also meant moving seventh, level on points with Manchester United?

  14. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 70 mins

    Second change for the Toffees. 

    Enner Valencia comes on in search of goals, two of them at least, with Kevin Mirallas the man to make way.

    If anything I expect Watford to score more goals. The way they are playing they are pulling Everton all over the pitch. It's been pretty straightforward, Watford are more hungry.

    There is no one trying to lift the Everton players, no communication. They're all confused, they don't know what's going on, really.

    Here's some of your views on Watford fielding 11 nationalities against Everton today

    Jon Hind: Who cares where players are from? If English players were good and affordable enough they'd play.

    FionnArsenal: Don't need more homegrown. English players need to diversify and play in other leagues. Germany have players all over the world.

    Simon Jordan: Homegrown rule is a ridiculous suggestion. If you're good enough, you play. No matter where you're from.

    Top defending from Sebastian Prodl. 

    Gerard Deulofeu's low cross is perfect for a Lukaku sweep home, but Prodl backs up his earlier goal with a strong challenge to deny the Everton striker at the front stick. Excellent work. It even went out for a Watford goal kick.

    It was a wonderful corner, what a delivery and Okaka made a great run. He outran Gareth Barry to get to the near post.

    Back down to that point about the delivery. It was great and if you get the ball in the right place in the box it makes it easy for them.

    Just after Maarten Stekelenburg looked to have kept Everton in it with a brilliant save, Stefano Okaka heads in the resulting corner, swept in by Jose Holebas for his second assist of the match.

    Ross Barkley makes his way on for Everton. He's got a lot of work to do to turn this around. Idrissa Gueye the man to make way.
