I think we've thrown 4 points away in the last 4 days: levelling against WHU then leading Burnley 2-1; we shouldm have seen everyone behind the ball. We're way too open.

With a heavy heart and a lot of embarrassment I think we have to hand him Saturday but then appoint another manager if it isn't a 3 point return.

It's too late for that. Nobody is turning this ship around this season. We need to hope we just do enough. What are we missing currently? A past it right back, a useless centre back (and a permacrocked one) a bog average midfielder and a lad on loan who has done next to nothing.

There is not a lot that can be changed. That's the big worry. Other than taking a risk on El Ghazi or Dele i'm not sure what else we can do here.
 
Everyone pretending like Calvert-Lewin, Richarlison etc.. are relegation fodder.

Get a manager that in that kens his onions. That is half the battle. Lampard is lost. Send him back down to London.

Needs to be a thread of possible managers who couldn't be worse than Lampard.

I nominate June Brown off Eastenders, even though she is over ninety and recently died.

We will be brown bread before June.
 
I would like us to try and sack at least 10 of the players first, there must be a decent case for gross misconduct for most of them surely.

I thought Lampard would sort this out. He's just too open.

We should have got a firre fighter in and squeezed out dogged performances and 10 more points.


Itls too late for point scoring.

Do it if you want to, I deserve it.

But Everton is all. Managers are nothing at the end of the day. If we dont win on Saturday that's him gone IMO. And I'd support the decision.

We couldn't defend under a "defensive" coach either in Benitez.

Play 5 defenders, still get beat.

1 fit midfielder tonight. He could've played Coleman. Could've brought in some of the kids.

We've scored more own goals, had more errors leading to goals, and more players sent off than any team in the league.

We could do a load of things. These players can't.

Benitez was a defensive manager, so was Allardyce, so was Ancelotti. Apart from a small period under Ancelotti and a few games under Allardyce and Benitez we’ve been terrible defensively. Unless we’re going to go out and get Simeone, I don’t know who would sort these defenders out.

They’re just very very poor. Keane Coleman Kenny Holgate are championship standard players. All our defensive midfielders are injured or suspended. These are the results.
 

We all want continuity bit you don’t keep a busted flush either. He’s tactically naive and as someone said on the match day thread he froze today. Bottled it.

This cast of characters would still leak goals though.

At some point, we have to stop blaming the manager. The manager doesn't make all these individual errors all over the pitch, which makes any tactics moot

We looked like the side that would go on to win the game. We should have won the game. Yet these clowns gift them 2 goals. Burnley didn’t even have to play well and we still gifted them chances. That’s on the dross out there. A manager isn’t going to come in with 9 games to go and we magically start shoring up at the back and start scoring goals. The team back to front is pathetic.
