2022/23 Frank Lampard

[Death]

Yes they are.

He's the manager.

Benitez sold Digne...right?

Don't open that double standard can of worms. The list is endless regarding current and former manager.

No turn.

I just dont support this manager now. I hope he makes us safe and neventually successful. Althiugh I dont see either happening. Not when he sells our best players and buys Chamopionship tat with the proceeds.

We can’t keep chopping and changing. Frank united the fanbase when he joined. Let him build his team and I don’t want Martinez back btw.

Absolutely ludicrous that you blame the manager for selling players when he works under an owner, board and DOF.

You've never supported Lampard. You've been talking about non-existent opposition to him from day 1 and were saying he was one game from the sack as early as April last season.

lol lol lol lol lol

It's essential to Lampard wanting a striker in. I believe if DCL stays fit maybe the trigger isn't pulled on this. But the club dont have the cash to stay in PPF limits and buy another striker AND a CM...which may be why Gueye is still in a holding pattern.

The kid is beng sacrfificed for those two positions needing to be filled.

It's Lampard's job to manage the resources all told, and wasting cash on McNeil and Vinagre has been costly.

We’ll see what comes out in the wash but if we sold Gordon I’d imagine we’d see at least two attacking options up top plus Gueye. I wouldn’t be surprised if we then saw more buys in January with the money.

lol lol lol lol lol

You wanted him sacked before we played United last season.

I won't forget it.

I think people just need to calm down a bit

As you say it’s been a decent start for those three players. A bit tougher for McNeill but two poor games doesn’t make him a tat signing. Vinagre we’ve not seen much of. Players need time to adapt and settle.

Hopefully we can finish off the window with another striker signing and Gueye joining. If Gordon goes it might be a bit livelier but we’ve lost top players before and we’ve always found replacements.

We still haven't really replaced Lukaku.
Haven't replaced Richarlison.

Yes, let him build it. And I hope for us all he does it.

I just wint be there if he runs into trouble and supporters are clamouring for his head. And many others wont who cant go along with a Gordon sale.

Players need changing

The board needs changing

The owner needs changing

The support teams at the club need changing (especially player conditioning/medical)


The manager does not need changing. Tried that 6 times already and it hasn’t worked. Just let him get on with the job.

Wow. 2 games in and you've written them off too?

?

Consistently wrong.

I hope so as long as they are quality. It's easy spending cash on trash.

 

[Jebus_lives]

Honestly shocked it took Dave this long to turn.

We're a few days away from the change of pace into "with the money we've spent we should be aiming for Europe...Lampard is not the man to do that"

 

[Saint Domingo]

Haven't replaced Richarlison.

Well DCL and Richarlison were the successors upfront to Lukaku. I’m sure we’ll be selling DCL fairly soon and we have to hope the club find the next array of players to lead the line.

It’s because Franks has limited options up front right now. The signings of Tarkowski and Coady for peanuts were spot on. Our defence became more solid. If we get a few attacking players in we should be ok.

Just for context; supporting a manager for his first full season right here
