Sam Allardyce defends Farhad Moshiri and asks Everton question after Frank Lampard sacking

Former Everton boss Sam Allardyce has defended the club’s owner Farhad Moshiri over the club’s transfer record.

The Blues sacked Frank Lampard as manager on Monday afternoon 48 hours after a 2-0 defeat at West Ham United. It was a result that leaves Everton in 19th place in the Premier League table and only avoiding being bottom due to a superior goal difference than Southampton.

Allardyce spent six months in charge at the Blues during the 2017/18 season, having been brought in to replace Ronald Koeman. The former England manager labelled his time at Goodison Park as "tough" and also spoke about the club's current situation.
