Conor Coady has hailed manager Frank Lampard as being “fantastic for everybody” at Everton while backing under-fire goalkeeper Jordan Pickford.
Coady goes into the World Cup with England with his club side Everton having slipped down to 17thh place in the Premier League following their 3-0 defeat to Bournemouth last Saturday.
However, despite their recent woes at the back, the Blues have generally looked like a much more solid unit this season with Coady and fellow new boy James Tarkowski building up a promising centre-back partnership.
