Everton manager, Frank Lampard has come out to praise defender, Mason Holgate for embodying the attitude required from his players. This is coming as Everton seeks to avoid relegation from the Premier League, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, Holgate was sick yesterday and couldn’t train with the team, but he insisted on playing because he felt the team needed him.
Lampard added that Everton is still in a relegation fight, and the players must unite to get out of it.
His words, “He was sick yesterday, he couldn’t train or travel with us and he arrived at the hotel separately,”
“But he woke up this morning and said ‘I’m playing this game.'”
“That is the attitude which will get us through.”
“We’re still in a relegation fight. If we want to get out of it, it has to be together as a club and we’ve seen that in recent weeks,”
“It’s a huge result for confidence. A week ago we were five points from safety and now we’re a point safe but there is more to do.”
