Former Everton full-back Michael Ball has heavily criticised goalkeeper Joel Robles following his performance against Burnley.

The Spaniard was on the winning side of a 3-1 triumph at Goodison Park, but Ball was less than impressed with the shot-stopper.

Sam Vokes cancelled out Phil Jagielka's opener with a 52nd-minute penalty, but an own goal from Ben Mee and a strike from Romelu Lukaku ensured that Everton went home with all three points.

In his column for the Daily Post, Ball questioned Robles' ability and believes that manager Ronald Koeman needs to in the market for a new goalkeeper this summer.

“It’s as if Joel Robles is not learning. Ever since the Spaniard came back into the Everton side on a regular basis around the turn of the year, he’s made some crucial saves at important times.

“For the most part, Robles has been quite steady. But what you cannot deny is that he continues to make silly mistakes, and none sillier than against Burnley on Saturday when he conceded a penalty.

"Signing a new goalkeeper in the summer is a priority and knowing the Dutch football mentality as I do, I know Koeman and his staff will be making blunt assessments on the current squad. They will be asking, 'How many of this squad would get into any of the sides currently in the top four?' Robles wouldn’t."

Joe Hart and Jordan Pickford have been among the names touted as potential targets for the Everton boss.

Maarten Stekelenburg arrived at the club last summer, but an injury halted his progress, paving the way for Robles to be first choice.

The 26-year-old, who joined the club from Atletico Madrid in 2013, has started 17 Premier League games this season.
