Everton manager Lampard accepts job speculation

Everton manager Frank Lampard says he has "no problem" with speculation over his future as he attempts to save the club from Premier League relegation.

Lampard's side are one point above the bottom three following a 3-2 loss at relegation rivals Burnley on Wednesday.

They have won just twice in nine league games under the former Chelsea boss.

"I know the rules. In my relatively short managerial career I spent 18 months at Chelsea where I was probably two games from the sack," Lampard said.

"Maybe that's a symptom of football in the Premier League. That's pressure, that's fine, you sign up for that.

"I have no problem with that in terms of speculation. We are a huge club, people want to talk about it. I don't waste my time, I just do my job."
