2021/22 Frank Lampard

[matty1878]

Yeah, because he should be playing Dogs of War style to grind out some points. Instead we are about as solid as a statue of Peter Crouch made entirely of jelly.

lol christ

he doesn’t have the players to play that

well allan we need him back

…a further blow to his win %, especially if you take out the cup games. i don’t think he’s got us a single point away from home.

If he keeps us up it’ll be a great relief but there’s certainly no statue. We know he’s taken over from undoubtedly the worst managerial appointment in the clubs history, a man incapable of organising a team, selling a key player and causing turmoil in the club but Lampard is not blameless for some results.

if we stay up, I think he’ll have learned a lot about himself and I’d be hopeful for him in the longer term. If we go down, he’ll still be here next term.

My position on Lampard is that it hasn't been great, but it hasn't been disastrous.

We have to look at what he's done here through the prism of the turd andwich he was offered and accepted to take on.

For that reason: if he delivers on PL status with these players he's done his job and deserves praise; if not he should be sacked.

And he had a hand in stoke’s demise

Shock horror One the games greatest players get top jobs, who knew.

He would have stayed at Derby if Chelsea hadn’t come calling.

How so? They were in the Champo when he went in and they were still in the Champo when he left. The managers before him were poor and, after an initial uplift, the current manager is struggling too, despite doing well with Northern Ireland. That suggests there are deeper rooted problems at the club.

If Moyes could West Ham, that flakiest of sides, solid on two separate occasions then some fella should be able to do the same here. We have competent defenders who are being made to play in a way they are not suited too.

Ancelotti was able to grind results out, so it is not exactly impossible.

That's a question we can answer at leisure if it happens. Someone who's brought a team up before.

 

[diggerdestroyer]

He inherited a demoralised and depleted squad … not sure exactly what we expect

I'd expect him not to name keane as captain of this bunch of marshmallows. Honestly. What's going on.

 

[barneygumble]

he doesn’t want to tho. and you don’t know that

Evidently, I do know that. It’s why I’m highlighting it. It’s why we’re struggling
We lack batte, hunger, desire… yet our “options” don’t reflect where we’re at.

We have great talents a viable, yet choose to play a rigid ineffective style.

 

[jonnyboy316]

I would stick with him if we go down

 

[BluePaul86]

Whatever happens and whatever league we end up in, sack him and bring in Steve Cooper.

The fans never want to admit they are part of the problem.

There are 40000 fans mate can they really be blamed for the actions of one person and a tin of paint ?
