Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher says 'someone at Everton' reached out to him after he called the club the 'worst-run' in the country.
Speaking on Monday Night Football last month, just days after Everton's 2-0 defeat to West Ham United, which proved to be the final match of Frank Lampard's tenure as manager, Carragher hit out at Goodison Park officials for their role in the club's struggles.
Then, writing in his Telegraph column at the start of this this month, after the Blues failed to make a single signing in the January transfer window, the former Liverpool defender said: "There ought to be a full and frank explanation as to how and why Everton are the only club fighting relegation who have come out of the transfer window with a weaker squad, otherwise positions are untenable. I called them the worst run club in the country on Monday Night Football ten days ago. Some people disagreed. I have been proven right.
