Classic Everton transfer, pay over the odds for a player that the top 6 don’t want just about to come off his peak. He has a few good games then thinks he’s done enough to warrant automatic selection which he gets at Everton because we never have a manager with the balls to drop experienced players.

Our manager literally dropped one of our most experienced and influential players today. With Walcott it’s nothing to do with the manager not having the balls to drop him, it’s a lack of options on that flank. Hopefully Lookman is fit for Lincoln and actually does something, maybe he’ll get a run in the team. Wouldn’t bank on it though.
 


He'd be better off playing upfront and running in behind.. out wide he is terrible just runs in to people when trying to take them on

He’s benched Lookman all season even when fit. Vlasic was told he wasn’t needed. Dowell hasn’t seen a minute whilst Walcott plays every game.
 
I've defended him mostly but today was very very poor. Having him and Richarlison wide leaves us with no real creative player in either spot. His relationship with the fullback has been poor and I have been mostly willing to put that on Seamus who I think is struggling with the ball but he wasn't there today. Hopefully Lookman is brought back soon so we have an option otherwise Walcott will just keep playing.
 
Always struck me as not having enough game intelligence or hunger to really push himself. Been coasting for years now and has no appetite to really muck in. Should be used only to stretch defenses with his pace late in games. Never a starter....up to Marco to manage that with what he has at his disposal even if it means tweaking the formation. This is where a manager shows his worth

Offered nothing going forward but does a lot of good defensive work, especially today helping out Kenny. Not a reason to play him every week but not to be overlooked either.
