Arsenal and Mikel Arteta facing 'new manager bounce' after Everton make Frank Lampard decision

Everton have made the decision to part ways with manager Frank Lampard after their recent Premier League loss to West Ham. The Toffees survived last season's relegation dog fight, but back-to-back defeats to fellow strugglers Southampton and now West Ham in this campaign has seen the club take action and relieve Lampard of his managerial duties.

The former Chelsea midfielder leaves Goodison Park with the club second from bottom after just three wins from 20 games. 35 points separate Everton and Arsenal, but the Gunners could be heavily impacted by the decision to sack Lampard.

Manchester United's 3-1 win against Everton in the FA Cup means that whoever is brought in by the board will have just under two weeks on the training ground to instil their ideas and methods along with building relationships.
