England No1 Pickford spilled his catch for Marcus Tavernier’s opener and was caught sleeping for the second.

Bournemouth then added a third through Jaidon Anthony in the second half to secure three points.

But at full-time as Everton players approached the away end at the Vitality Stadium, fans let their feelings be known.

Pickford could be seen being dragged away as well as a number of other senior stars with Lampard ushering his players towards the tunnel.
