Everton avoided relegation by doing this…
7What if Frank Lampard wasn’t sacked by Everton? #lampard #everton
Everton are the mirky water in your rancid sink that spirals down into the plughole named disaster. They staved off relegation last year and without a smart enough overhaul: the drains of the EFL are closer and closer.
Relegation might mean financial oblivion of Everton football club, it certainly feels abyssal right now.
Yet when you see this they might either have curtailed relegation at the death against Wolves, or still have a fighting chance when they host Bournemouth this Sunday.
They’re only here because of three reasons:
1: the quality at the bottom of the Premier League is awful,
2: Sean Dyche was hired as manager in January and, inversely,
3: Frank Lampard isn’t manager any longer.
Today we ask: what if Frank Lampard WAS still the Everton manager?
