NEAL MAUPAY has bit back at Everton fans who blasted the team as they walked past supporters following their 4-0 battering against Tottenham.

Everton were humiliated in north London as goals from Yves Bissouma, Cristian Romero and a brace from Son Heung-Min compounded a tough day at the office for the Toffees.

But following the defeat, Sean Dyche's side were seen walking past fans at London's Euston train station as they made their way home.

A video captured by one fan and posted to social media showed furious Evertonians hurling X-rated abuse at the squad.

One fan can be heard shouting: "F*** off, you f***ing rat. F***ing 80 grand a week? You F***ing w****r.”

Many squad members went past with their heads down, though Jordan Pickford and Mason Holgate did attempt to appease the fans by briefly speaking to some of them.

Taking to social media later on, Maupay - who is back at Everton after spending last season on loan at Brentford - responded in a critical tone on X.

Quoting the original video, he said: "Imagine another job where it’s normalised to get abuse like this.

"Hanging around at a train station to scream at men who are trying their best…"

The 28-year-old Frenchman is yet to feature off the bench this season.

Everton's defeat at Spurs came after a home defeat to Brighton on the opening day, which has left them at the bottom of the table on a goal difference of minus seven.

Indeed, the situation is so bad that bookmakers Paddy Power are already paying out on bets for Everton to be relegated.

Dyche, 53, risked fan wrath ahead of the Spurs game when he said: "We have spoken about this before many times… hero, zero, zero, hero.

"This is quite an extreme place. It is either, ‘Yes we’re amazing, we won’ or ‘rubbish, you’re all rubbish again.’ That kind of psychology en masse."

Everton have the chance to finally get a win on the board in midweek when they face Doncaster in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday before hosting Bournemouth next Saturday.

They are in the midst of an injury crisis, however, with only 14 first-team players available during their recent match against Spurs.

Among the absentees were Jarrad Branthwaite, James Garner, Seamus Coleman and Youssef Chermiti among those in the treatment room.

Dyche has suggested that both Coleman and Garner could make their comebacks as early as Tuesday, but warned they will have to "wait and see" how they do in training.
