Speaking following Evertons 3-2 defeat at Hull, manager David Moyes has slammed his sides performance as shocking and admitted the possibility of being dragged into a relegation fight.
Moyes: "The performance was shocking and we all take responsibility for it. I've seen a few poor performances since I've been here but that (first 45 minutes) will be up there with the worst of them."It is up to the players to take responsibility but I take responsibility for the players I select.
"We could be dragged into a relegation fight - particularly because of the injuries and individual performances. But I am the one who has to take responsibility for the team. I pick the team and I sign them.
"I'm the one who has the ultimate responsibility."
"Are the problems we have had in midfield this season the main reason (for our form)? I don't know. I tried to put Tim Cahill back into midfield tonight and at first it looked to be working. But we also tried to go with two forwards and we found ourselves three goals down.
"We're not doing well enough and we need to do better."
