Everton man hits out at his own fans following incident after loss to Tottenham [video]

Neal Maupay has fired back at Everton fans on social media after footage of the supporters hurling abuse at their own players surfaced online. The Toffees were thrashed 4-0 at the hands of Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday, making it two straight losses to start the season and seven goals conceded. They’re yet to score in the league and, despite the fact there are still 36 matches to go, they’re concerned by what they’ve seen so far.

To air their grievances, a group of Everton fans decided to wait for the players to board a train on their journey home and were quick to let them know exactly what they thought of them as they walked past. One such player was Maupay and, with his reputation as one of the Premier League’s biggest wind-up merchants ever, couldn’t quietly take the abuse and had to respond. This angered the fans even more.

Not only did Maupay hit back at the fans in the station, though. He also took to social media after the fact and shared the footage along with a message of his own.

Once footage of the abuse surfaced online, Maupay made sure to address it and criticised the Everton fans for the way they acted after the game. He spoke about how abnormal it is for footballers to have to take this sort of abuse, admitting you wouldn’t see it in any other job and told the fans that the Toffees squad were trying their best.

“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 incident is the icing on the cake of Maupay’s time at Goodison Park which hasn’t been very successful at all and it wouldn’t be too surprising if he leaves the club sooner rather than later.
