2022/23 Frank Lampard

[TheBigIguana]

Forwards that don’t kick the ball out the stadium from 5 yards don’t exist??

Every single forward misses chances. All of them.

Yes but they do occasionally take chances too at a better rate than 1 in 20.

Billy beane has ye all on a string . Yet ye continue to play his game

I hope we give Pep Lasso the job after Frank.

This is not what's happening though.

I mean we sit on our 18 yard line and offer no support to our forwards. Our full backs dont overlap, our midfielders dont get in the box, bar Onana maybe twice on Saturday, and we cant just put crosses into the box cause Maupays abar 5 foot 5. We hang our forwards out to dry tbh, we rely on a moment of magic or a defensive mistake to get anything. The good teams, when theyre in attacking possession, have all their players in the opponents half and press and try to win the ball high up. Full back overlapping, midfielders making runs into the box, actually attacking as a team. Not 8 defenders and 3 attackers. Look at Newcastle vs Utd at the weekend. Got a point because they actually went out to play and win.

And got lucky though...

This lad has been scoring regularly and making assists which is far more than of our 1st team players are doing so give him a chance. Just like Rooney was given a chance way back. What have we got to lose ?

He’s done that at U18/21 level, no guarantee he’d do it at PL level and comparisons to Rooney are ridiculous as he was a freak of nature and unreplicated

Do you fancy Demarai Gray to score when he goes through on goal?

Do you fancy Demarai Gray to score when he goes through on goal?

Often enough. He's scored a few doing it and missed a few. Needs to get through more would be my criticism. And make better decisions.

Demarai Gray: Shots: 21, Shots on Target: 8, Shot Accuracy: 38.1%

No, Im surprised he can finish his dinner with numbers like that.

And pass better and be more aware.

Basically not be Demarai Gray.

I want us to buy a player that I’d back to score more than a quarter of his big chances.

His conversion rating is less than 5% amigo.

Yes.

In an ideal world Gordon, Maupay and Gray (our starting attackers) are all bench attackers for Dom, X and X.
