Frank Lampard has made it clear to the Everton hierarchy he needs a striker before the end of the transfer window.
Speaking after the game against Nottingham Forest, in which the Blues snatched a late point through Demarai Gray, the manager said he had expressed his desire to strengthen his forward line-up by the end of the transfer window on September 1.
His comments followed a match in which Everton had 19 shots but needed Gray's 89th minute goal to rescue the club's first point of the season. When asked about the finishing of Anthony Gordon, who had several efforts on target but was unable to find a way past Forest keeper Dean Henderson, Lampard said he was confident the 21-year-old would soon add goals to his game.
