FRANK LAMPARD was forced to pull his Everton players away from a furious away end following a 3-0 loss to Bournemouth.
The Toffees found themselves 2-0 down after 25 minutes with Jordan Pickford having a NIGHTMARE just before the World Cup.
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.
