Everton are starting to really worry me now — they are feckless, they lack bottle and, in Frank Lampard, they have a manager who hasn’t been involved in a battle down near the bottom of the table for 20-odd years now.
Even then, the West Ham team Lampard debuted in weren’t exactly relegation fodder and when I look at him on telly, I see a man who isn’t down so much as someone who simply doesn’t have the answers.
He and Ashley Cole only know how to be part of a winning team and, remember, when they played, if Lampard didn’t do it, Didier Drogba did, if Drogba didn’t do it, Petr Cech did, if Cech didn’t do it, Ricardo Carvalho or John Terry did, and so on.
