Frank Lampard’s job as Everton manager hangs in the balance after chairman Bill Kenwright and owner Farhad Moshiri refused to comment on his future after defeat at West Ham.
Everton were beaten 2-0 at the London Stadium on Saturday afternoon as Jarrod Bowen’s double deepened their relegation worry. West Ham came into the game on a seven-match winless run in the Premier League, but got the better of Lampard’s out-of-form side.
Bowen scored twice in seven first-half minutes to ease the pressure on Hammers boss David Moyes and place Lampard’s job under serious jeopardy. Everton have now gone 10 matches without a win in all competitions and are 19th in the Premier League, level on 15 points with bottom side Southampton.
