TO adapt the immortal line delivered by Marcellus in one of Shakespeare's greatest plays: Something is rotten in the state of Goodison Park.
While it would be overly dramatic in the extreme to say Everton are heading for the kind of tragic, desperate fate that befell Hamlet, alarm bells should be ringing loudly following David Moyes' declaration that "we are not ready to win Premier League games yet."
Three games into a new campaign that promised so much three months ago but now threatens to deliver so little, one cannot help but ask two questions: a) Why does the manager feel compelled to make such a statement? and b) How has it come to this?
"WE are probably not ready to win Premier League games yet."
Words which should freeze the marrow of every Evertonian who cares for his or her football club.
Because they're an admission of failure.
The words were spoken by manager, David Moyes, on August 30.
