UFC star Molly McCann has revealed that Frank Lampard has asked her to come and speak to the Everton players.
'Meatball' Molly is a huge Toffees fan and regularly dons club colours when training.
McCann is enjoying a whirlwind time in the UFC
Like many Evertonians, she is a long suffering supporter and even made a jibe at the club after knocking out Hannah Goldy with another spinning back elbow.
She praised the crowd for the electric atmosphere in the O2 Arena.
McCann told Michael Bisping in the Octagon: "It's those walk-outs, it's that energy that you bring, which gets you finishes. To see everyone else on this card who didn't want it as much, they let you down. I will not let you down...I'm not Everton Football Club!"
She also added: "Up the f****** Toffees."
The UFC star joined talkSPORT Breakfast and was asked about her beloved Everton and whether she thinks they are in for another relegation battle.
"I'm going to be optimistic because if you have a negative mentality it will make it even worse," she said.
Lampard wants the UFC star to speak to his Everton players
"I speak to Frank [Lampard] a little bit now and he says he'd love me to come in and tell them my stories to the boys and my stories to him.
"I think the players pulled up the scruff at the end of last season and had a go. It's just the board now.
"When I referenced 'I'm not Everton Football Club, I won't let you down', that was more towards the board and not the coaching and technical staff and players.
"They will be hearing from me anyway if they start playing rubbish."
McCann and best mate Paddy Pimblett, who is a Liverpool fan, have taken the UFC by storm
Everton finished 16th last season, avoiding relegation by just four points and there haven't been many signs of improvement this pre-season.
Star forward Richarlison was sold to Tottenham and they have struggled to get results ahead of the new campaign.
Their lowest point was a 4-0 defeat to MLS side Minnesota, while also losing 2-0 to Arsenal in the United States.
