Everton captain Phil Jagielka says the players have to share responsibility for an alarming slump that has seen them win just one of their last 12 Premier League matches . Wednesday 's 2-0 defeat at Stoke left the Toffees in 14th place , just six points above the drop zone with 10 games to go , although 18th-placed QPR have a match in hand . This latest loss saw the heat turned up on Everton boss Roberto Martinez with '£MartinezOut ' trending in the UK on Twitter in the aftermath - despite fans in the away end at the Britannia Stadium showing vociferous support for him and the team at half-time - but Jagielka insists the squad must also take the blame . Everton captain Phil Jagielka says the players must take responsibility for their poor Premier League form . England international Jagielka says it is time for the players to 'buck up our ideas ' 'The fans were great ( against Stoke ) . It has been a difficult season to watch us because the performances have not been as good as last season , ' Jagielka told the Liverpool Echo . 'They are going to vent their frustrations , it is normally the manager that gets it as he is head of the food chain . 'But we as players know we need to buck our ideas up , start performing better and take pressure off him , pressure off ourselves and start getting some more points . ' Roberto Martinez is coming under increasing pressure to turn it around after one league win in 12 games . Everton manager Martinez and his team look lost in the Barclays Premier League of late . Martinez swept into Goodison in 2013 armed with promising sound bites and a snappy dress sense to match a refreshing cavalier playing style that had taken Wigan to FA Cup glory only a month earlier . The former Swansea midfielder also oversaw Wigan 's relegation from the top flight , but that was largely forgotten as he proved a runaway success on Merseyside , taking Everton back into Europe after a four-year absence and just missing out on a place in the Champions League . But this season has proved much more difficult for the Toffees , with a porous defence and stuttering form in front of goal leading to a growing sense of frustration . Victor Moses ( centre ) rises up to head home his side 's opening goal en route to a 2-0 victory against Everton . Stoke substitute Mame Biram Diouf sealed win with a late goal after reacting to Marko Arnautovic 's rebound . What has vexed supporters even more is their contrasting displays in the Europa League , with the Toffees beating high-flying Bundesliga outfit Wolfsburg home and away en route to a largely trouble-free run into the last 16 . The visit of Dynamo Kiev is next up for Everton in that competition , but Jagielka concedes their focus now has to be moving clear of the Premier League 's basement battle . 'We know we need to concentrate on our league form , ' he added . 'We have 10 games left now and need to pull our finger out and start picking up points . '
Everton were beaten 10-0 by Stoke at the Britannia Stadium on Wednesday . Toffees have won just once in their last 110 Premier League games . Pressure is mounting on manager Roberto Martinez with club 14th . Phil Jagielka says the players must share the responsibility .
