Everton boss Frank Lampard says he's happy to ignore talk around the club's sale.
Lampard is aware of the takeover speculation.
But he said: "It's probably something that I probably don't know enough about and probably can't affect, certainly can't affect other than doing my job well, because I think that makes every conversation better whether I'm part of them or not and the question when you ask me is much more positive than the back end of last season.
“So I think my job is to coach this team and to build relationships with the team, with the fans and the people above me and I have to say since I've been here, the relationship I have with the chairman, the CEO and the owner have been great.
"I think that alignment that we've found and we're searching for, has helped us improve and let's hope that we can continue with that because it won't always be rosy.
“Improvement doesn't happen in a straight line, it can take its hits, I'm not naïve enough to think that because we're unbeaten in a few games that everything is great. In terms of communication between the club, I'm happy at the minute and as you say, those things are not really for me to dwell on at all really."
