Frank Lampard hoping Goodison can boost struggling Everton

Everton boss Frank Lampard says his side need to find a way to get enough results to keep them in the Premier League after they were thumped 5-0 at Tottenham.

The Toffees are just one point above the drop zone after a gutless display in north London where Michael Keane put through his own net before a capitulation that saw Harry Kane bag a brace and Son Heung-min and Sergio Reguilon also get on the scoresheet.

It was a fourth defeat in five Premier League games since Lampard took over from Rafael Benitez and relegation looks a possibility on the evidence of this showing.

Lampard has 13 games to save the club from a drop into the Championship and says there is no quick fix.

"There are issues that are there before me, they don't take care of themselves overnight, so we have to find a way of [getting] results to keep us in the league this year," he said.

"We have to be positive about what we do, if anything is to be taken out of tonight, it is a nice jolt to show us that when we make those footballing errors it is not going to work for you.

"But we have got a lot of home games left, 13 games is a lot of points, so it is important that I remain positive but we can't shy away from mistakes made tonight.

"The players have understood the situation before I came because they lost a lot of games and when you are on that trajectory you'd be a fool not to see what was happening, everybody at the club did and I came into that.

"We have seen a big uplift at Goodison, we have seen a big unification, the fans are really buying into what we are doing. We have now two home games to work for to get the results that would make things seem more positive. We have to focus on them.

"It might be one click moment, but we haven't done that yet."
