Frank Lampard explains why he might have to "call out" Everton players in future

Frank Lampard claims he has had to learn man management from scratch in his four years as a coach - but will not be afraid to tackle any difficult issues with his Everton players.

The Toffees boss says he did not need these skills so much as a player because he only had to focus on his own game. He has been on a crash course in developing people skills since landing his first job at Derby in 2018.

Lampard headhunted the experienced Paul Clement to be his No. 2 at Everton when he took over in January and admits he leans on him a great deal when it comes to man management. “What some players don’t consider so much when they want to coach or manage is that you have to quickly learn the skills to work with people,” said the former Chelsea manager.
