Nikola Vlasic blasts former Everton boss Sam Allardyce

Nikola Vlasic has aimed a swipe at former Everton boss Sam Allardyce, questioning whether his style of play 'could even be called football'.

The 21-year-old, who is currently on loan at CSKA Moscow, enjoyed a bright start to his Everton career after signing for Ronald Koeman in the summer of 2107.

But after the Dutchman was sacked and eventually replaced by Allardyce, Vlasic found himself out of favour and struggling for playing time.

Appearances: 20

He made just seven appearances in all competitions under Allardyce, who failed to get the fans onside despite leading the Toffees away from trouble and to an eighth-place finish in the Premier League.
