Romelu Lukaku has off-day as Everton held by West Ham

Everton put in one of their worst displays of the season as they were held to a 0-0 draw away to West Ham.

The Toffees, who changed their goalkeeper with Maarten Stekelenburg starting ahead of Joel Robles, failed to create a single chance on target in the 90 minutes with Romelu Lukaku having an off day.

Slaven Bilic, who named Adrian and Jonathan Calleri in his starting line-up, saw his side dominate the first half but were reduced to half chances.

The second half was a similar story with the home side having the better opportunities, although Everton had a strong penalty claim late on after Ashley Williams had his shirt tugged by James Collins but the referee did not appear to see the incident.

The result sees Ronald Koeman’s side remain seventh in the table while the Hammers climb to 13th.

What happened to Romelu Lukaku? The stage was set for the Belgian to add to his 24 goals this season as he had scored in each of his previous nine games against the Hammers. But he barely had a kick as he was starved of service and could not carve out any opportunities himself. The contract rebel, who has been linked with a move back to Chelsea, has been scoring freely at Goodison Park but has only scored once in his last seven away games.

Winston Reid (West Ham): The defender may have caught Lukaku on a bad day but he dealt with the Belgian well using his strength. He shrugged off a nasty looking injury early on to play on and marshall the Hammers defence and was supported well by James Collins.

WEST HAM: Adrian 5, Collins 7, Fonte 6, Reid 8, Masuaku 6, Fernandes 6, Nordtveit 6, Kouyate 6, Lanzini 6, Ayew 5, Calleri 4. Subs: Sakho 5, Cresswell 5.

EVERTON: Steklenburg 5, Holgate 6, Jagielka 8, Williams 7, Baines 6, Gueye 5, Schneiderlin 5, Davies 5, Barkley 4, Mirallas 4, Lukaku 5. Subs: Barry 5, Lookman 6, Calvert-Lewin 5.

28’ - GOOD EFFORT: The corner is swung in, Barkley clears. Nordtveit drives the ball in form distance, it hits Davies and comes back to him and his second shot is deflected and is saved by the keeper.

30’ - SO CLOSE! Lanzini tees up Kouyate who lashes in a low drive from 20 yards which goes narrowly wide of the right-hand post.

52’ - CHANCE! Fernandes runs into the box, cuts inside and his shot is blocked, it falls to Lanzini's who fierce drive hits Jagielka.

71’ - CHANCE! Lookman collects the ball 40 yards out, does a neat half turn and lashes a shot wide of goal from distance. Decent effort.

75’ - CHANCE! Lookman has space on the edge of the box and fires in a dipping effort which is narrowly over, the youngster is coming more into the game.

85' - PENALTY SHOUT: Baines puts the ball into the area and Fernandes puts it behind for another Everton corner. This time Collins heads the ball clear, the ball is crossed in again and Jagielka's looping header goes over. Collins is lucky not to concede a penalty as he was tugging Williams' shirt as the cross came in.

West Ham have recorded one victory in their last ten games.

Ronald Koeman's side have not won a game away from home since January 21st when they beat Crystal Palace 1-0.
