Everton Fan Calls For Frank Lampard To Be Sacked And Replaced By Steve Bruce

If one Everton fan has his way, though, Bruce would be in charge of their remaining games and tasked with keeping the club in the Premier League. 

Everton supporter Oliver called into talkSPORT and said the Goodison Park outfit should relieve Lampard of his duties and be replaced by Bruce, who's currently at West Brom. 

Oliver branded Lampard an 'absolute joke' and bemoaned the £40 million signing of Dele Alli.

He said: "Lampard failed at Chelsea, failed at Derby and now he’s failing with us! We’ve got to sack him now!​

Asked who he wanted in, he replied: "You’ll laugh at me for this, but I want Steve Bruce. He’s experienced!​"

Lampard, who was appointed in January, has won just one league game since taking charge. 

But the 43-year-old is ready for the challenge ahead of a crucial run-in. 

"I have no problems with the challenge," he said after Everton's defeat on Monday. ​

"I will be ready for them, the players will be ready for them, they have to be ready for them.

"I didn't walk into the building with a magic wand.

"The feeling at this club when I came here was we could be going down. It was clear around the city, it was up to me to change that and I thought we had changed that.

"But this is a test of that. I had 20 years as a player, I had hundreds of periods like this."
