Richarlison? The one we're all giving out about not replacing?

I think it's fair to note the over domineering wings that almost exclusively look to goal, is in part based on a lack of a central threat. But beyond that both Gray and Gordon basically start their runs mid pitch and pray to beat their man for room. Currently that is 2/3rds our offense tactically. Overlaps, build up, consistent patterns of play are non existent. It's almost 1v1 every time in possession. Everyone else, maybe even our best creator in Iwobi are expected to do things ancillary or off of those two (despite him often feeding them their best chances). On our oppositions build up today I'd argue that wasn't the case.
Maybe some of that is relieved with a better central threat, but it isn't as if AG or DG have shown an acumen in supplying others removed. Its just to say Im left confused in what Lampard is instilling or adding from the median besides interpersonal positives in the group and possibly recruitment. That might make it worth it at the moment, but tactically he's being consistently outshone by his matchday opposition regardless of the result.

Were still in the league because Of Goodison Park. Remember turf Moor?
Do you honestly think Goodison would've been like that with Benitez here?
I'd stopped going to the games because of the fat slob.
Not enough credit is given to Frank for uniting the fanbase.

Onana could have come in the middle with Davies as the pivot between Onana and Iwobi

My point is - either both were let down by injuries, recruitment etc or both did/are doing bad jobs.
Some like to build a narrative that the former was the devil and the latter our savior when the cold hard facts of results suggest they have done pretty much the same level of job here.

I'll agree that he did well talking about the club and rallying people. But no other PL fans think he's any good. Can you honestly say there's any PL manager that would do worse than him?

For a large part of the fan base he was the devil.

The Villa boss doesn't have a particularly good record. And he has spent a fortune to do so.
