"It's a fact": Rafael Benítez makes blunt admission about his Everton team after Crystal Palace defeat

Rafael Benítez has reacted to Everton's defeat to Crystal Palace on Sunday, claiming that they can't hide from the reality that the players are "not amazing in possession". The Toffees faced another defeat in the Premier League, with Patrick Vieira's side beating the team with a score of 3 - 1. During the match, Everton players had only 39% of the ball, while Benitez was expecting his them to cause more problems on the pitch. “With Fabian Delph, Andre Gomes coming back, Andros Townsend, Demarai Gray and Richarlison we have enough players in the team of technical ability to do that,” the manager said (via Liverpool Echo). “We played the way we played because they were pushing and doing well. Then we changed things to get more control and we were a threat on the counter. “We are not amazing in possession. It’s a fact we have to realise. “But we need to find a way to be sure we can get results.” Join us on Telegram!/ Follow us on Twitter!
