2022/23 Frank Lampard

Does anyone else wish Frank would just lace up his boots and bring himself on? "This, this is how you play football ok watch you run there, you cross when he's there, you shoot here"

This is on the players as much if not more than the manager. Too many players having a half decent game then thinking "Ok that's me out of the firing line for a few weeks" we haven't had one single consistent performer this season apart from Pickford who is clearly fuming at what's happening in-front of him. As has been said above, Iwobi has reverted to type. At least he appears to be trying though.
 
I've no issue with sitting through crap football if you can see some sort of style and progress towards something. WE've had more than a full season of disoorganised dreck that shows no sign of improvement.

Get him gone. If payouts are the problem, Paul Clement was once highly rated as a manager and he's sat in Finch Farm right now.

Don't bring Dreck into it.

I looked up Clement’s managerial record the other day, thinking that he could be the board’s cheapskate option.

It’s not great at all. Barely lasted 12 months anywhere, points per game consistently less than 1 apart from his spell at Derby. His last club was Cercle Brugge at the bottom of the Belgian league.

If he had the tactical knowledge, surely he would have been sharing it with Lampard anyway.
 
He didn’t want to be here any longer. He wanted a pay off. Otherwise he would have changed his style when we were safe with 10 games to go. Instead he stuck to the awful football he plays while also taking regular digs at the fans.
I think it was more down to the team needs to play these tactics, as simply they are not good enough to play any other style…
Maybe a lesson in there for Lampard

Ancelotti rated him, but then that was as an assistant.

Like you posted, I had a memory of the tag “highly rated” for some reason, but his stay as manager at any club is brief and number of wins consistently grim.

and yet he has been getting praised in the media as a great coach that will help lampard on his learning curve, yet see no evidence of either
 
1pm on Monday and not a peep from the club, no signings linked, targets going to other clubs, not a thing.

We are absolutely finished.

West Ham are also in turmoil, but I still believe we lose that game.

Well the official site is strangely silent, and the Southampton game has not been handled by the comms dept in the usual way, they havent even bothered spinning Franks post match babble. Surely that would mean theyre preparing to announce the sacking now.
