After been axed from his position as Everton manager, Frank Lampard opened up on his time at the club and his disappointment.

The former Chelsea middle on Monday was fired following a poor run of games which had kept the Toffees in the 19th place on the league.

Everton were also sinking last season before Lampard was appointed on a rescue mission which he achieved having taken over from Rafael Benitez.

The 44-year-old has now issued a statement following his sack, saying: “Coming into Everton last year I knew we were in a tough moment.”

He thanked everybody, adding that “I will never forget the incredible night against Palace that we shared.

“I’m disappointed that we couldn’t achieve more together and wish all the players and everyone at Everton FC the very best for the future.” Lampard said via Daily Post.

The former Chelsea midfielder left Everton on a 10-game winless run that included eight defeats.
