New Everton manager Frank Lampard says he will win over doubters with his “work ethic” – and believes he can unite the club, its players and supporters.
The 43-year-old was appointed on Monday and inherited a fanbase that was frustrated with the choice of the club’s former boss Rafael Benitez.
Lampard’s arrival has prompted questions over his level of experience.
But the former Chelsea boss said: “People will see I have a work ethic.”
Lampard, who had 18 months in charge at Stamford Bridge after just over a year with Derby, added:
“Fans will see how I embrace this job with everything I do in the workplace. If they see that and they see the reaction on the pitch, I hope that support will continue.”
Lampard named his former Chelsea and England team-mate Ashley Cole among his backroom staff on Thursday.
