Lampard confident he can correct Everton’s form after Brighton pile on the misery

Frank Lampard believes he can get Everton back on track, as the pressure grew on the former Chelsea boss following a dismal 4-1 defeat to Brighton and Hove Albion.

Everton were no match for Brighton on Tuesday at Goodison Park, as they were condemned to a fourth Premier League defeat in five games.

Having stayed up by the skin of their teeth last season, Everton sit 16th with 15 points from 18 matches.

Everton might well be in the bottom three by the time they face fellow strugglers Southampton on January 14, but Lampard believes he can turn their fortunes around.

“Since I have been in here we have been in this situation, so it’s not a case of fear, it’s a case of just keep working,” Lampard told reporters when asked if he feared for his future.

“I can’t control the talk or the decisions, when you are around this area of the table this is what happens.

“You lose a game like this, I absolutely understand any reaction. I don’t listen to too much of it because if you do then it becomes your focal point, so I don’t focus on it.

“I’m very confident in myself and will work to turn it around. I can’t predict the future. We have to try and win games — it’s all we can look at.”
