Coady: Everton in a bad way and in a bad place

Conor Coady admits Everton are "in a bad place" after their FA Cup defeat at Manchester United.

Coady scored in the 3-1 defeat on Friday night.

He later said: "We are in a bad way, bad place and everyone wants to get out of it. We came here with a plan and stuck to it. To lose the game to an own goal and penalty, it is gutting.

"We are not enjoying it and need to get out of it quickly. The manager is fantastic with all of us, outstanding, and he understands the football club. We need to keep listening to him and need to keep fighting for him everyday. That is what we will do as a team."

On 'sack the board' banners, Coady insisted: "As football players, that is not our domain. We focus on trying to get results, we love this football club and we need to keep fighting. At the minute, we are not a team that can play pretty football but we go out there and give 200%."
