Nigeria midfielder, Alex Iwobi, has urged Everton fans to stick with Frank Lampard following a poor start to the Premier League season.
The Toffees have only recorded three league victories this campaign.
They lost 4-1 to Bournemouth and exited the Carabao Cup at the third round stage, and all these have piled more pressure on Lampard.
Iwobi, however, believes the 44-year-old former Chelsea midfielder remains the best choice to steer the club.
“Of course, the club is very ambitious, and we want to achieve something. That’s what we want to do – we owe it to them and to ourselves,” Iwobi responded to a question when asked if he understands the frustrations of supporters.
“I say stick with him [Lampard] because, not just me, but the players do appreciate what he is doing and what he is doing for the club.
“He is a hard-working man, who is putting his job first – maybe before his family! He does work very hard and is an understanding man, so stick by him.”
