  • A section of Everton Have turned on Frank Lampard once again
  • This came after the Toffees’ latest defeat against AFC Bournemouth in the Carabao Cup
  • Lampard controversially made 11 changes for the clash to the side that lost 2-0 to Leicester City over the weekend

Frank Lampard has fallen out of favour with a fierce section of Everton fans, who called on the Chelsea legend’s sacking after the 4-1 defeat to Bournemouth on Tuesday, November 8.

The Carabao Cup clash against The Cherries came at the back of a 2-0 defeat to Leicester City and Lampard decided to do an overhaul in his starting XI.

His side was thoroughly underwhelming as Everton fell behind through goals from Jamal Lowe and Junior Stanislas.

Demarai Gray pulled one back for the visitors, but that only seemed to motivate Bournemouth to go for a more emphatic win as two late goals from Emiliano Marcondes and Jaidon Anthony compounded more misery on the Merseyside club.

According to OddsBible, Lampard is suddenly a favourite to become the next manager to receive the sack, with his odds sitting at 3/1.

On social media, fans did not hold back on their criticism of the gaffer, who had a brief revival with Everton over the last few weeks.

What Frank Lampard was up to last night..2 games out from a 5 week break and he makes 11 changes in a cup that we are on our knees desperate to win since 1995 that would be our biggest chance of winning something and makes 11 changes. Then doesn't take any blame after himself! One fan noted.
'Lampard out. This team is going to the Championship I swear.' Another added.
'I don't know if Frank Lampard makes it to January.' Said another fan.

Part of the reason fans were angered by the Bournemouth defeat was because it meant one of Everton’s best chances at silverware vanished on Tuesday.

Hasenhuttl was dismissed on Monday, November 7, barely 24 hours after Southampton suffered a crushing 4-1 defeat to the in-form Newcastle to leave them in the relegation zone.

It marked the end of a fairly long tenure for the manager, who was appointed at the St Marys stadium in November 2018.
