Farhad Moshiri, the owner of Everton, has responded to calls for the firing of the team’s coach, English football icon Frank Lampard, due to the squad’s subpar performance this year.
Everton currently occupies the 19th spot in the Premier League standings after yesterday’s 2-0 loss to West Ham. They have only collected 15 points from 20 games.
In an interview with Sky Sports, Moshiri was asked if Lampard will be fired after the game, but he did not provide a definitive response.

He said;
“I can’t comment. It’s not my decision.”
On the other hand, Lampard had previously told the BBC that he is not concerned about losing his job. During an interview, he stated;
“I don’t go that far to be afraid. I have zero concern of losing my job, and I’m happy to do it. All I do is my work. It’s really as simple as that: when I get up each morning, I consider ways in which we may improve.
“We had a significant altercation and survived the league [last season].” It is understandable that we are fighting once more while other teams are attempting to move on because we lost Richarlison and have since sought to build around it. Nothing in history grants you the right to compete with them in their league.
Everyone must make an effort to advance because these are difficult times. Jumping into the future is not something I can do. With five or six games left in the previous season, we were five points outside of safety, but as a club, we must work together.
I have nothing negative to say about the players’ attitude or approach to the game. Even though they passed it slowly, we were unable to intercept it in the last third.
