The pressure increased on Frank Lampard and his struggling Everton side after Jarrod Bowen’s early goals handed West Ham a much-needed 2-0 victory
Perhaps Farhad Moshiri thought that turning up to watch his team in the flesh for the first time since October 2021 would inspire. Or maybe he just wanted to set his expert gaze over proceedings and judge for himself where Frank Lampard’s team are going wrong.
This was Moshiri’s first chance to study Lampard team and what he saw was Everton collapse as soon as West Ham lifted their level. Rarely can a team scrapping for survival have defended with such little heart. It was not enough for Lampard to argue that his team had offered some encouraging flashes with some neat approach play.
Briefly, it was tempting to wonder if Everton’s civil war was ending. After staying away from Goodison Park when Everton lost to Southampton last weekend, Moshiri, Bill Kenwright and their fellow directors were at the London Stadium and would witness a mildly encouraging display at first.
