Everton are being outplayed and the problems are stacking up for Sean Dyche.

Does Sean Dyche bring on Neal Maupay on and move Arnaut Danjume out wide?
It is all too easy for Aston Villa at the moment when Everton press they do not press as a team only as individuals, Sean Dyche will be frustrated.

A strangely subdued atmosphere at the normally rocking Villa Park. Is it because it has all been a bit too easy for the hosts?

Aston Villa 2-0 Everton
Everton are showing a bit more attacking intent as half time approaches. Nathan Patterson swings in a cross but it is over his team-mates' heads.

Former Republic of Ireland striker on BBC Radio 5 LiveHe [Arnaut Danjuma] has been good since he has come on, he wants to run in behind and create stuff - now they have a spark.
Good play by Danjuma.

Arnaut Danjuma has looked pretty lively since coming on and he breaks clear of the defence on the right side of the box but his near post effort is turned behind by Emi Martinez.

Up goes the fourth official's board and there's nine minutes of time added on.

Aston Villa 2-0 Everton
A rare Everton attack as a looping Amadou Onana effort is caught by Emi Martinez.
Was that an effort on target? Barely counts but if so it is Everton's first of the game.
CLOSE!published at 40 mins
Aston Villa 2-0 Everton
Ollie Watkins smacks into the post as he stretches to try and meet a cross from the left.
No way this finishes 2-0, Aston Villa are getting more goals here unless Everton can sort themselves out.

I was gonna write that it looks like Villa won't miss Mings but probably best to judge them when they aren't facing a team with all the quality of a hungover Sunday league side.

BBC Sport at Villa ParkOh dear, Dominic Calvert-Lewin just cannot catch a break.
The Everton striker has been looking towards the bench quite a bit and now trudges off.
Things going from bad to worse for Everton.

Former Man City and Everton defender on Sky SportsGot to give Calvert-Lewin credit for wanting to stay on but they have to save him from himself really.
SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 38 mins
Aston Villa 2-0 Everton
Image source, PA MediaYep, that's it. Dominic Calvert-Lewin is going off and he looks frustrated. He tried to continue as long as he could but he can't continue. He is replaced by Arnaut Danjuma.
Calver-Lewin has managed to complete 90 minutes just once since January. He cannot catch a break.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin is down on the ground again and is now having an ice pack placed on his cheek. I think he is going to have to go off here.

Sean Dyche has taken the impossible job. Everton look worse than last season. He deserves better.
