Everton manager Frank Lampard has responded to speculation over his future after reports claimed his position might be under threat. The Blues boss, who faces Manchester United at Goodison Park on Saturday, has lost seven of his nine Premier League games in charge.
Asked how he has dealt with speculation about himself, Lampard said: “For me, in my relatively short managerial career, I probably spent 18 months at Chelsea with the same. Over that 18 months you’re probably always two games from the sack.
“Maybe that’s just a symptom of football and the Premier League, it’s pressure, that’s fine, you sign up for that, I’ve got no problem with that. Even if you’re in the FA Cup final or make the top four or whatever, you still know the rules.
