Seamus Coleman questioned Everton's attitude and desire in a brutally honest assessment of their 3-0 loss at Wolves on Sunday.
Goals from Raul Jimenez, Leander Dendoncker and Diogo Jota were enough to give the hosts all three points at Molineux in what was another dismal performance from the Blues.
Defeat effectively spelled an end of Everton's slim hopes of Europa League football next season and meant Carlo Ancelotti's side had only picked up one point from their last three games.
And Coleman, who came on as a first half substitute following an injury to Yerry Mina, didn't hold back in his assessment of the performance he and his teammates had put in, reports The Liverpool Echo.
He told Sky Sports: "Shocking. Really, really bad.
"There's no hiding places, they were better all over the pitch and we need to ask some serious questions of ourselves.
"We can all play badly, we can all misplace passes and crosses, but when the attitude's not there and the desire's not there...we weren't there today and we got beat by the better team.
"We need to have a good, hard look at ourselves and maybe we're not where we think we are. We're 12th in the table for a reason.
"As individuals in the dressing room, as a club, we need to be expecting better. Lads really need to dig in, myself included, and get our heads down - or that won't be good enough for this manager. It's most certainly not good enough for this football club."

"Sometimes they're the things you have to say," he added.
"Quality-wise we've got some very good players, but the desire and commitment wasn't there today.
"You can lose a game of football but all around the place I think we need more commitment on a daily basis and really come together."
