Everton boss Ronald Koeman is under a huge amount of pressure at Goodison Park.

Micky Quinn has told the Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast Show on TalkSPORT, which was broadcast on 19th October, that he would have been fuming if he was an Everton player and heard Ronald Koeman’s comments about his squad’s fear.

Koeman recently suggested that Everton’s players were playing with nerves, and that was limiting their capabilities on the pitch.

And Quinn feels that the Dutch manager’s comments would have done little to raise morale around Goodison Park.

“If I was an Everton player, and the manager said I was scared to pass the ball, I’d certainly curl my lip up a bit,” Quinn said.

Koeman is under serious pressure at Everton, after his side’s poor start to the campaign.

The Toffees are currently in 16th place in the Premier League table, after what has been a disastrous start to the new season.

Everton went into the new term believing that they could challenge for a European spot, but they will need to improve drastically if they are to challenge the top seven spaces.

Everton are in action later this evening against Lyon, and only a win will help to reduce the pressure building on Koeman at Goodison Park.
