Moyes had us finishing a place below where we are now.And who, like Benitez would have relegated us!

Can’t argue with this tbf.Look around you. We are lesions...
I said that if we didn't beat United he had to go. That's because I value the club more than any manager and always will do.
I also said that Lamapard was in the strange position of either being sacked for taking us into the Championship or a hero who saved us...no half measures with his appointment.
Fortunately it looks like he's going to be our hero if we can just get one more win.

If Kenwright wasn’t here we’d have ended up with Vitor…
Having both championship and premier league experience, as long as we'd performed to a half decent standard, he'd have been kept on if I was in charge.I said that if we didn't beat United he had to go. That's because I value the club more than any manager and always will do.

Correct. The Mosh and The Architect.
Lampard I think will be a decent manager, but it took him about 8 games to see that you cant set up in an open way with this lot.
We'd probably be already relegated had we kept Benitez and not replaced him with Lampard. For that, I am thankful.
ALTERNATIVELY...
It took Lampard about 8 games to convince the players that unlike Benitez's logic - you are actually allowed to kick the football.
These players have done these miraculous turn arounds before. Under Allardyce, under Silva, under Carlo, even under Benitez at the start. Until I see more than half a season of sustained form from them I don’t trust them as far as I can throw them.
It’s in their interest to avoid relegation at the moment, to play well and survive the summer window. When it looked like Benitez had a few of their numbers with Digne leaving it became their interest to get rid of him, just as they did with Koeman and Silva. When the players see their contracts under threat, they get managers fired. That’s their MO.
Lampard therefore had a golden opportunity to swing the axe this summer but I would bet a lot of money that we’ll see stories of ‘Coleman is worth another season’ ‘Keane is ready to knuckle down under a new manager’ ‘Kenny is a blue, another extension is only logical’ ‘we don’t need a midfielder with Davies back to fitness’. Then when Lampard starts to realise he’s made a massive mistake and draws up plans for getting this lot out in January, they’ll turn as they did on all the other managers and have him out before the Jan window.
As a club we need to be brutal this summer. A few games of decent performance from these charlatans shouldn’t overturn the abysmal application they’ve shown over the last 18 months under Ancelotti, Benitez, and Lampard until a few weeks ago.
