Everton Must Be Better To Avoid Another Relegation Battle – Lampard

Everton manager, Frank Lampard has come out to warn his players that they will need to be better to avoid relegation next season. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, his players must understand that the club was in a relegation battle for a big portion of last season because of bad performances, and that cannot repeat itself next season.

Lampard added that the team must be better to compete higher up the EPL table.

His words, “The players have to understand that we were in a relegation battle for a big portion of last season,”

“We had an amazing night [against Palace] and an amazing run which was great historically for the club but, as soon as that finished, I put it to bed very quickly so the players better put it to bed as well.”

“We were in that fight for a reason and, if we don’t want to be in that situation again, they have to be better, I have to be better.”

“Lots to think about, lots of work to do,”

“What matters is where we are at in two and a half weeks.”

“If there is to be good to come out of this, the players and the dressing room have to understand that they have just put in a very poor performance individually and collectively and been well beaten.”
