Everton manager Frank Lampard has revealed his plan to motivate creative talent Dele Alli.
The former Tottenham star struggled to show his best form when moving to the Toffees in January of this year.
However, Everton did avoid relegation last term, and Lampard is hoping Alli and the rest of his squad can show better form this season.
Asked about Alli by reporters, Lampard stated: "I think it's sometimes support and sometimes tough love.
"We will constantly support them because they are young men. If I heard those numbers (about Dele's goalscoring) and didn't know the player, and saw 20 goals, 20 goals, five goals, two goals, or whatever, I would say, 'We've got to find a solution'.
"There must be something there which can be physical, or it can be mental. So, I think it is important he has a support mechanism, and not just me, he has to support himself, and the people around him."
