Contrary to widespread rumours, Frank Lampard will remain in charge of Everton for Friday’s FA Cup clash against Manchester United.
That is according to The Independent and the update comes at a time that pressure is mounting on Lampard amid major doubts over his future.
Everton suffered a humiliating 4-1 defeat at Goodison Park to Brighton and Hove Albion and now there are growing fears over their relegation threatening form.
The report from The Independent claims Lampard took training on Wednesday and is expected to hold his pre-match press conference on Thursday. That’s when the reporters will dig deep with questions about him potentially getting the sack.
It is a game that could define Lampard’s future and they are up against an in-form United side looking for their first trophy in six years! None of this bodes well for Lampard and his future at Goodison Park.
Lampard helped keep Everton up last season, but he could send them down this term. Only time will tell if he will last the entire season.
I hope United add another nail to the coffin on Friday night by knocking the Toffees out of the FA Cup.
