Joe Cole insists something 'doesn't sit right' between Rafael Benitez and Everton after they fell behind in the Merseyside derby.
The Toffees were 2-1 down at half-time at Goodison Park, with Demarai Gray halving the deficit after goals from Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson and star forward Mohamed Salah.
Everton fans - who showed their ire towards the players during Sunday's defeat at Brentford - were seen leaving Goodison Park after just 20 minutes of the derby, therefore missing Gray's strike in the 38th minute.
