Frank Lampard of Everton suffered their heaviest defeat this season following a 5-0 demolition from Tottenham Hotspur. The club’s long-time status in the top flight has acted as a brittle shield against their painful decline. The 5-0 thrashing has raised the question as to if Everton is good enough to stay up.
Tottenham Thrashed Frank Lampard’s Everton
Frank Lampard inherited a mess when he succeeded sacked Rafa Benitez and very quickly learned just how bad things are in away defeats at Newcastle United and Southampton. The defeat at Tottenham makes it the third loss of the former Chelsea manager. This, however, was another level of incompetence, and a wake-up call for anyone still laboring under the misapprehension that Everton can escape relegation because they have always done so before.
Everton is already in the dangerous territory of hoping three teams will be worse than themselves because if this is the standard of effort and performance they put in between now and the end of the season, it will mean they end up in the relegation zone.
Talking about the loss Frank Lampard has made it clear that he is not happy about the result, he also spoke of their loss at Southampton and it looked very much like they threw the towel in again once Michael Keane scored the own goal from Ryan Sessegnon’s cross. Son Heung-min later made the scores two to three minutes later.
Harry Kane made it three before half-time, substitute Sergio Reguilon scored with his first touch seconds after half-time, finishing with such ease. The last goal came from England’s captain Kane to complete his brace in the game.
