Everton manager Frank Lampard admits he headed into this season not expecting the club to improve their position after narrowly avoiding relegation last term.
The former Chelsea boss' first five months in charge of the Toffees ended with his side escaping the drop in their penultimate game of the 2021-22 campaign.
But Lampard said he did not see there being much progression after losing leading scorer Richarlison to Tottenham for £60million and spending over £70m, mainly on midfield reinforcements, in the summer.
