2022/23 Frank Lampard

[ForeverBlue92]

you are a joke lad

Dont ever tell me the board have low standards when you're gushing over 3 wins in 17 league games mate. Martinez often would pluck 1 result oot the bag and you would have Kenwright in the media telling us "what a manager".

Solid result today but we're still a poor side, in a relegation scrap with a manager with the 3rd lowest win % in our 'istory.

Level heeds, perspective over the season so far and not knee jerk reactions are needed my friend.

I know it'll be tempting because we got a "positive" result to think we must have done some things well and that maybe we're turning a corner. I'll gladly pour the necessary cold water on that. We still have to play way, way better in the next two matches to get the actual good results we're going to need.

The losses haven't been capitulation though. Sometimes we haven't had the luck or been clinical enough. On us but we are seeing sprouts of his vision.

 

[Ufotone]

So pleased for Frank

Very nice unexpected point.

 

[steven]

We look so much better when we try and keep compact and solid. That’s how we have had our minor successes this season.

Needs to keep to this philosophy moving forward now. Another huge game for us on Wednesday.

I don't really think there is much of a case to say we haven't been lucky and complaining about how clinical we are completely misses the boat on why we don't score goals.

So I hope we aren't seeing the sprouts of anything because that would be horrendous.

Good point today that, needs to get a striker or two in as soon as the window opens. Otherwise he's just asking to be sacked.

 

[davek]

Takes a lot of credit for sorting the defence out.

 

[Lanolin]

That’s a massive point and they should all be pleased with themselves. Absolutely have to back it up with a win on Tuesday, but it’s a start.

 

[Thomasc]

An unexpected point doesn’t change a great deal. Today was the anomaly.

Lose at home to Brighton and it counts for nothing other than 1 point out of 9 since the restart, which would probably see him sacked at most clubs.

 

[DanB90]

Do people actually see something different week to week? This is how we've been playing all year, just City are better at pinning you in than most sides.

It’s not though, is it?

It’s just that we’re not very good at playing football, so we fanny about with it because we can’t break through the lines, before going back to the keeper and hoofing it long to Maupay when he’s got a grock or 2 marking him close. And repeat this for the majority of 90 mins.

We haven’t tried to hit teams on the break very often at all.

So will the next manager if no forwards are brought in.
Dunno whats gone on with this club in the past 12 months with that. Its so obvious to everyone. Poor all round from everyone at the club.

 

[Runub]

Hopefully that result can give Lampard and the squad great confidence going forward. Lampard must be given the tools to do his job in the January window

we’ve just ground out
a result against the best team
in the country

we know we need players we know and it’s upto the muppets to help lampard
fingers cross this helps

if you can’t see a positive from this

your mad

 

[ToffeeTim]

So what if Brentford won there. The rest of the league don't..

United were 4 down by the half

A point there for this Everton team is very good, and we absolutely can't turn our noses up. That point we lost against Wolves would have been lovely now....

 

[GoldenToffee]

Takes a lot of credit for sorting the defence out.

He definitely does. But his failure to demand additional attacking players takes a lot of that goodwill away for me.

Never once heard him come out and state in simple terms what will happen if he's not backed. Can't imagine any half decent manager just quietly getting on with their job when they'll be fired for getting the team relegated when it's mostly on the board for their abject failure to back him.
