Everton midfielder Alex Iwobi insists the players are behind manager Frank Lampard.

Lampard is fighting for his job today after defeat at West Ham on Saturday.

Iwobi said: "We were unlucky not to get the result. We pushed, but it wasn't our day today. If we don't take our chances, we will be punished.

"We must show ownership as a team, we attack and defend together. We still have half a season left and a lot of improvement to look forward to.

"Frank Lampard made a few changes after the break and told us to push on and be more dynamic.

"Pressure is not new for us, we were in the same situation last year. There's going to be a break now and we're going to get back together.

"It is not only the coach's job to take responsibility. The players fight for him and the club."
