Former Everton defender Ashley Williams says Rafa Benitez's team are miles away from being a top four proposition.
He wrote for BBC Sport: "Sunday's draw with Tottenham left Everton in 11th place and you have to say mid-table is about right for them. You look at West Ham, who are third at the moment, and they are clearly a much better team.
"When I watch the Hammers, I know exactly what they are going to do. They are tough to break down, with some really dangerous players on the counter-attack and they have quality in certain areas.
"In short, they have a plan. The same goes for every team that is in and around the top of the table, but not Everton.
"I don't watch Benitez's side and think 'right if the plan comes off, they will win today' because I am not even sure what that plan is.
"I also don't think their squad is good enough, or big enough with as many options as the other teams above them probably do."
