Everton's players took part in an honest assessment after the defeat to Newcastle United according to Conor Coady.
Offering a glimpse inside the dressing room, the 29-year-old revealed the team felt the game had "passed them by". The need to be more ruthless and braver on the ball also came up.
Coady, a senior figure thought to be part of the squad's leadership group, also sought to rally his teammates as they chased improvements. He said: "We can't dwell on this... What we have to do is learn from it as quickly as possible because we need to stop this little bit of a run we're on at the minute and get back to our best."
