Arsenal legend Ian Wright has told BBC 606 that the Everton players are not responding to caretaker-manager David Unsworth.

The former Arsenal striker made the claim following Everton’s 4-1 defeat to Southampton away from home at St. Mary’s Stadium in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon.

The defeat to the Saints came just days after the 5-1 hammering by Italian club Atalanta at Goodison Park in the Europa League.

Everton are now 16th in the Premier League table with just 12 points from 13 matches, only two points above the relegation zone.

Arsenal legend Wright has claimed that Everton players are not responding to Unsworth, who has been in charge of the Toffees since the departure of Ronald Koeman.

Everton have a good team, but their performances and results so far this season have been hugely disappointing.

The Toffees are in a relegation battle at the moment, and a new manager needs to be appointed as soon as possible.
