2022/23 Frank Lampard

@Moomin you were right

I’ll be honest, if we lose next week I think he’s gone. Where we go from there is anyone’s guess.

I would certainly hope not

On both counts that is. I hope we dont lose obviously but I hope we dont change manager either.

If we lose next week, he can have no complaints. Whether that's right or wrong is immaterial. It's the nature of the game. He'll have known that when he took over.

What happens when you appoint a proven manager really.

LOL then they fall of a cliff after a few games

Villa 2-0 v Utd, Emery is exactly the manager we needed...

View attachment 189815

The ironic thing about that live table is it simply reinforces the lazy - if factual - stereotype that's been hung around Lampard's neck: that he took us from 16th to 16th...and is now improving us to...16th.

Nothing, it was a reply to another couple of posters who were discussing Thomas Frank....

Cutting half the original message off there. Nice

I was replying to a specific part.

Pipe down.

I agree. I think another managerial change could be the final nail in the coffin, but we know who our owner is and we know what he does.

Like night follows day, they will turn.

My list of possible replacements, tuchel or poch as dream tickets, both prob will say no, but worth a try ? Then maybe try Simone from AM, he needs a fresh challenge, but might need a break from footy. Otherwise I would wait for Martinez, reckon he will be available after World Cup. He’s better attacking manager than what we got now.

I said it yesterday, if he gets the chance he’ll appoint Martinez or try for Pereira again out of utter spite

We appointed Carlo Ancelotti and some on here wanted him out because we’d dropped to tenth.

The fanbase won’t be happy unless a new manager comes in and gets us top 4 playing brilliant football. Anything other than that and it’s just a chorus of moaning.

If Lampard went tomorrow and we got the best class of manager we could hope for e.g Pochettino Enrique Mancini Zidane etc. then they’d all need at least the rest of this season to bed in, all of next season to get the team from bottom half to pushing into top half, and then the season after to really challenge and that’s if they don’t put a single foot wrong all under cost constraints.

I doubt some of the fanbase would even tolerate that now, it’s basically win every game or gtfo now.

Newcastle now 3rd.

Burn, Longstaff, Willock, Almiron, Wood, Murphy all in the side

The level of performance Howe is getting v Lampard is frightening.

Some basically want us to follow the Watford method, hire for a few months, sack, hire, sack, hire, etc
