Other fans really seem to hate him. All the below the line comments in the Guardian when we lose are people delighting in him getting us relegated. Very strange to see such vitriol directed at a fairly harmless bloke.
He's a Trump-admiring Tory. Other than that, lovely fella.
 
He needs stick to a formation to help these players because week in week out, we are chopping and changing.

I fear because he was a great player, he thinks these players should just get with it when they aren't clever or talented enough.

Also if he could find a player who can cross from a F-ing corner and not hit the first man, he would get goal after goal
 
Done with the bloke already, tried to defend him as he is managing the most gutless team we ever had, but some of his choices are terrible.
  • Zero in game management
  • Sub choices are awful
  • Made to look silly tactically by Sean D
  • Stands on the side lines with his bum licking assistant in his ear the whole time, watching the game go by bye
  • Loyal to kenny, Iwobi, Keane for no valid reason, they cost us every game
  • Awful signings
  • One week we are a pressing team next minute we are not
  • One week 5 at the back the next a mixture of 442 and 451
  • No patterns of play
  • Zero attacking threat
Need to stop blaming everyone and look at what he has done with this team to date.
 

Playing too open and too high up the pitch. Next away game or against any of the top sides at home:

Holgate.Keane.Branthwaite.Godfrey. back four.
Allan.Delph.Doucoure.midfield 3.

Play deeper and compact. Grind out a result.
I wouldn’t play Doucoure ever again. He’s shocking a carthorse of a footballer
 

There is a reason Ancelotti made us defend on the Six yard box for a season and a half, he seem how limited Holgate,Keane,Godfrey were as defenders and with the ball.

We can blame Lampard all we want, well in fairness most aren't, what really options does he have? Play Rondon ahead of DCL, Gray or Gordon. He's tried 5 at the back, 4 at the back, 2 up top. Different combinations. Benitez tried different approach but players downed tools.....

We spent years being skint, we got a billionaire that we always wanted and wasted it. Poor management choices, poor recruitment.

Make no mistake about it, other fans are having a right laugh at us and the predicament we are in. We gloated and released chart topping songs. Haven't won a trophy since 1995..

I'm so sad for the younger fans, I've at least seen some success, but I said a month ago that this side terrified me more than the Mike Walker and Howard Kendall side of 1998, we have a terrible combination of players, nobody in this side will give 7/10 performances week in week out. The last 2 games have actually been better than our previous performances, but 18 defeats now and I can't see how we survive.

We could even finish bottom

doesn’t matter does it? bottom 3 is bottom 3
 
95% will be west ham and spurs fans.
Off course it will be Spurs and West Ham fans, he owned them as a player, Liverpool fans also as he was always compared to Gerrard.

Lampard is not the reason why we are going down. A contributor perhaps but well down in my list.
