2022/23 Frank Lampard

[Papa Shango]

Probably be given the Southampton game now after a plucky display against the big boys.

Expectations need to be set. If we scrape past the only team in the league that can match us for crapness, he should still be out.

Nothing less than a resounding victory - which I don’t imagine we’ll get - should do. If he tries to start with a back four he should genuinely be sacked at half time.

We shouldn't be basing appointments off one game regardless.

They either think he is the right man or not, if he is then back him, if he isnt then get rid and back someone else.

Not unless he gets a couple of players. He certainly has no credentials in turning around a toothless attack.

exactly

Does Sean Dyche improve the chances of 19th placed Everton remaining in the league with 20 games to go?

Jesus…if you’d have told me this question would be asked when Ancelotti and james Rodriguez were having a bit of fun a few Christmas’s ago…

 

[ProZ]

Just please let it by tonight so i can get a good nights kip

 

[sd_1992]

The board now have a week to get him players for probably the most important game in years. That they won’t, and everyone knows they won’t is exactly why he gets a lot of slack. The club is being crippled but not by Lampard.

 

[allen]

Am I allowed to say that, whilst things obviously look a bit perilous at the moment, it still isn't a foregone conclusion that he'll take us down?

This is the simple truth of it.

For all we’re bad, and our results worse, I don’t get the same sense of unmitigated, unavoidable catastrophe I did with Benitez.

Nor do I expect us to be fine.

My head’s just fried. I have no idea what will happen or what the best course of action is.

Not saying Frank is above criticism, the change in system from the decent performance at city to the 433 v Brighton with the players we had available was just stupid, and his record is very sorry reading, so if he gets the bullet I get it, but I don’t get how everyone thinks a new manager is gonna get that lot of shithouses in lie suddenly playing like brazil70 and slotting from all over the place, particularly if it’s Dyche or bloody moyes who comes in. These players are just not up to it.

That 532 is our best system atm, even against the likes of Brighton at home - we created more opportunities and have a more solid base with it. Go longer to Dcl/Simms and get players around them. Not my favourite tactic or style, but it’s the way out of this hole.

Sadly, if he is still in a job, Frank will probably pick some other mad system or go back to that 433 with bloody Tom Davies starting and bollocks it up anyway.

Clam dewn lids.

( my personal view is ) they’re unsure and will give him southampton game

 

[coleman=quality]

Unless we go Gordon and McNeil in the wing back positions, a gamble but maybe with another centre mid alongside Onana and gana it may work, when the onus is on us and Southampton sit deep, Coleman and myko
Will offer nothing

Seriously they can’t even play the positions they’re meant to play in never mind reverting them to wing backs

 

[ForeverEverton]

no mate you told a blatant lie.

no back tracking now

but yes the board are killing us

What did I lie about???

 

[davek]

That feller is barely holding it together now.

I feel for him.

 

[4737carlin]

While people waffle on about the board, Frank Lampard is getting us relegated. Lampard out now! The board will have to wait.

See that wasn't a bad performance tonight, but we still lost, however its not about one game win lose or draw

The board are abysmal, but don't fool yourself: he's their managerial choice and he is living down to their standards all on his own.

 

[maccavennie]

We`ve scored 3 all season?!?

Oh sorry, I misunderstood. Yes there's been games where we have scored 1 goal to win us 1 game against West Ham and also get us a point against Leeds, Brentford. We also scored 2 against Southampton.

So yeah mate, we are flying with our 12 league goals this season. New manager will have us playing like Argentina, I don't know what I was even thinking.
