Everton boss Frank Lampard insists he's still the right man for the job after defeat at home to Southampton.
Lampard says he maintains confidence in his ability to turn around his side's flagging fortunes after the 2-1 home defeat to bottom club Southampton ensured he has overseen the lowest points total in the first half of a Premier League season from an Everton manager.
Asked if he had a message to Everton's fans, Lampard said: “I don't have a message in that point of view. I have to be confident in my coaching ability, I've coached at Derby County; I've coached at Chelsea in the Champions League; I've coached at Everton last season and I'm coaching them now.
“So I have to work with the team that I've got and find a way to make us as good as can be. The message to the fans is that I want to create a team that can fight, show passion, I show that myself to be fair.
“We're in a tough moment so everything can look tough and feel tough but in terms of my abilities, I always remain confident about that because I know I'm not a miracle worker and I know I'm not the best coach in the world – to proclaim that would be stupid because so many people have got successes behind them – but I know I'll work as hard as I can to be as good as I can be and that's it."
