Frank Lampard: Everton boss says work ethic will help win over and unite supporters

Frank Lampard says he will win over those doubting his appointment as Everton manager with his "work ethic" and believes he can unite the club, its players and supporters.

The 43-year-old was named manager on Monday and has inherited a fanbase that was frustrated with the appointment of the club's former boss Rafael Benitez.

His own appointment has prompted some questions over his level of experience.

"People will see I have a work ethic," Lampard said.

"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.
