Everton’s Toffees haven’t experienced relegation since 1951, but it could well happen this season. Indeed, they are currently 17th in the Premier League with a single point ahead of Burnley, whom they faced on Wednesday and against whom they lost (3-2) in the last minutes. Since his arrival at the end of January, Franck Lampard has lost 7 of his 9 league games with Everton, and the Toffees calendar does not bode well for the future. With two games against Leicester, a trip to Anfield and the Emirates Stadium or even the reception of Chelsea and Manchester United, some supporters have no more hope: “absolutely appalling, clueless in defence, we are atrocious, I can’t see us winning anything in the last 9 games! I see Lampard leaving before the end of the season.”
Indeed, according to The Daily Mailmany fans no longer want to see the former Chelsea player on the bench for their team. “We can still stay up top, but not with Lampard in place. Absolutely no luck with him.” believes a supporter, while another regrets the choice of management to have hired a young manager to solve the crisis: “Lampard is out of place, we preferred inexperience to experience because the club listened to a minority of fans, he looks lost, exhausted and distraught.” The situation is serious at Everton and the countdown is on.
