If they keep their young players and build around them they will come back up, likely stronger.
Lampard has been awful and they will likely get rid. Patterson for example, looks a ridiculous talent playing for Scotland. Can’t get ahead of two of the worst right backs in the league. Now he’s out injured and Lampard made a comment saying he was about to start him. The Ukrainian lad at left back was in and out the team.
I can’t believe any Premier League football manager would rate Jonjoe Kenny.
Players will leave but if Everton keep their young players and get rid of the likes of Keane, Coleman, Kenny etc.
Pickford, Patterson, Branthwaite, Godfrey, Mykolenko, Gordon, Gray, Calvert-Lewin and Townsend would give a really decent foundation to prepare for the championship. Maybe even Dele Ali would find his feet at that level.
The likes of Richarlison and Allan will leave though I’d imagine.
