Everton supporters have taken to social media to express their disappointment and anger towards manager Ronald Koeman after he dropped Tom Davies for the league clash against Arsenal.
The 19-year-old started in the midweek Europa League loss against Ligue 1 side Lyon and he was one of the standout performers for Everton.
The midfielder has failed to complete 90 minutes in the Premier League this season with Koeman preferring to select summer signings Gylfi Sigurdsson and Wayne Rooney.
In fact, Davies has not a started a league match since the 4-0 defeat at the hands of Manchester United at Old Trafford last month.
After the starting eleven to face the Gunners was confirmed, the fans from the blue side of Merseyside delivered their verdict on social media and the majority of them were unhappy that Koeman had decided to drop Davies.

The Toffees will look to replicate last season’s result against Arsenal where they beat them 2-1 at Goodison Park thanks to goals from Seamus Coleman and Ashley Williams.
Everton could potentially find themselves in the bottom three at the end of the match if the Gunners manage beat them by a three-goal margin.
In other Everton news, the club are reportedly lining up this former La Liga manager to replace Koeman.
