2022/23 Frank Lampard

[ForeverBlue92]

Only a matter of time now.
Blaming tbe fans, saying we were always going to be in a relegation fight after last year.
We are in one now, yes we are and he is going put the door because of it
Bad result against any of the next 3 teams he is gone

Initially I thought Brighton game would be the one that decides his fate but I think it'll drag into Southampton.

Either way there is no way back now even if he miraculousy see's oot the season - the honeymoon period is over with the bulk of the fans you feel.

We get trashed 4-0 away vs City I think he will be gone.

Nah, "expected defeat".

Unless we lose by 7 or 8, he'll be there for the Brighton bile-fest. Depending on the outcome of that, he'll probably be shunted out that night.

Regardless of whether he can do this once he gets more players in Jan, he has to manage what he has in the moment. This includes holding his nerve when on terrible runs like we are now and playing crap. His comment about having control at the end and the crowd getting edgy just really shouts “manager losing his bottle and on the way out”. Having control ffs….we needed a win and weren’t even able to play basic football and move the ball up the pitch. I’d say majority of fans in the stadium and around the world were shouting at them to get up the pitch in that bizarre spell before their goal. With him saying having control and Mina dancing when we scored, I wonder do they have any idea how stressed and on edge the fan base is right now. Just utterly out of touch.

I think as fans, we can all put our opinion aside. I am sure all of us are desperate to see our club staying up. 1 point vs Wolves at home was unacceptable knowing that we need 3 points yesterday.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Well yes we need movement from forward players, and runs from wingers and midfielders….but that was not happening….so we need to keep the ball….not hound the centre halves to make something happen.

You say bottom of the league team as if thats far from where we are, we are 3rd or 4th bottom, not much between us at all, it was quite a level match up of 2 similar teams. But 1 had a new manager bounce.

Im not a fan of lampard as such, and he is slow in making changes, but that was not on him yesterday. Players failed, again.

But thats the level of player we have in the main, low half prem players.

I believe they were the worst side in the league over the first 15 games. We absolutely should be pushing for a winning goal or else what's the point anymore.

I thought our style of play again was slow, passive, pedestrian, lacking aggression, and lacking patterns of play. But yes, our forward players were shocking yet again in front of goal. That's on those players. Although lampard is the one who signed or backed those players too.

 

[daza_1973]

I think if he was so close to the sack he'd have been sacked after Bournemouth to give time.

You don't give him that break to sack him after one game.

I don't think there's any appetite from Moshiri or Thelwell to change it yet, but that'll change when we fall into the bottom 3.

Reactive, as always.

Its Everton we're talking about here, logic doesn't come into it.

It’s madness that the recruitment team think McNeil, Gordon, Gray and Maupay are adequate attacking options.

 

[Stevie Nicks Bootleg]

Its a simple game, made difficult by other factors.

If nothing is on, keep the ball. They panicked and caved to the crowd pressures and frustrations, it lost is the game.

Tarkowski’s ball found Patterson, a decent flick on and Gordon was potentially in, or at he very worst a goal kick for Wolves. Going for the winner was 100% the right thing to do. You think passing it square and not looking for openings in the 94th minute is something we should do for the rest of the season? If this game was in May and a draw benefits us greatly then keeping it wasn’t so bad, but it’s not about “just finishing ahead of Wolves” it’s about gaining 3 points in one of the few games where maximum points is essential.

 

[ArtetaMoney]

It’s on the fans this one, we should’ve let Perreira come in and manage us, the fans chose Frank and now we are where we are.

 

[JohnJq]

We get trashed 4-0 away vs City I think he will be gone.

We won't keep it down to 4.

We let Benitez sell a player he didn't like and then sacked him the following weekend.

There is no reason or rhyme to this club

 

[nsno-chris]

It’s madness that the recruitment team think McNeil, Gordon, Gray and Maupay are adequate attacking options.

Those 4 players have scored less top flight career goals than Richarlison had just at Everton

But they’re being played wrong

 

[RomanReigns]

Tim Cahill chose Lampard actually and he’s not even on the Everton board

 

[Gilbert..]

Taken out of context, I haven’t suggested he is the next Jimmy Greaves.

I’m not saying he’s proven or full of PL goals but he is bagging regularly for the team he plays in.

So for that reason and the reason that our forwards are dire, then surely you would give him a go wouldn’t you?

Id throw a kid on at 1-1 with ten minutes to go yeah.
Thats what he did.
Again im more bothered about the options right now.
Club has to have a good look at itself. This recruitment thing was happening way before lampard even got here.

You make it sound so easy yet none of that was on at all.

Point is a point, its that simple.

He probably didn’t choose him then.
