# Everton 0-2 Norwich – Player Ratings

Well. That wasn’t ideal, was it?

On a night where many of us were marching to Goodison riding on the cloud of Koeman’s apparent invulnerability, we’re all coming away shocked.

The problem ran all through the team tonight, from Koeman to Valencia as not one player put in an exceptional performance. The team was sluggish and wasteful, hesitant to be clinical in situations where the instinct of a first-time show could have worked better than around 80 touches around the opposition box. Compare this to Norwich, who had two good chances and put them both away with ease, leaving us a bit red-faced.

Koeman will be able to see (hopefully) that certain players don’t belong at Everton, or at least need a break from the first team. Too many tonight shied away from the game, where players should have flourished.
