Conor Coady admits Everton are in a 'bad place' following 'gutting' FA Cup defeat to Manchester United... but insists the team 'need to keep fighting' for under-pressure boss Frank Lampard

Conor Coady has voiced his support for Everton boss Frank Lampard following the club's 3-1 defeat to Manchester United.

With the club struggling to stay afloat in the Premier League, Friday's visit to Old Trafford in the FA Cup offered the Toffees the opportunity for a reprieve but it did not come.

Despite an improved performance in contrast to their defeat to Brighton last week, Lampard's side were once again beaten, with a Marcus Rashford penalty in injury time capping off a 3-1 win for United.
