A section of Everton fans are calling for Frank Lampard to be sacked after less than three months in charge following their 3-2 defeat to relegation rivals Burnley.

One fan wrote on Twitter: 'We can still stay up but not with Lampard in charge. Absolutely no chance with him.

 

Another said: 'Lampard out of his depth, we went inexperienced over experienced as the club listened to a vocal minority of fans, he looks lost drained and clueless.
