Let’s be honest, if we just look at the tactics alone from Frank Lampard, he was a very poor manager, he tried the same tactics week in week out, he was scared to make substitutions etc, and ultimately he deserved to be sacked. Yet still with Lampard, this same group of players at one point, although only early into the season, had the best defensive record in the league.
We all believe we are a dead certain to go down, and I have believed that for a while too… but I think if Dyche can bring back the basics, make us a difficult team to play against home and away, and just sure us up, these players can really kick on. Rafael and Lampard were two disastrous appointments, Rafael had 0 passion and was a deluded person, who made baffling decisions like selling James and Digne. Lampard had the passion but was completely out of his depth.
Dyche I think can make us a better team, he has the experience in this league and has been successful in managing poor sides. He also seems very grounded, and is realistic in his assessments of himself and the team, he isn’t going to blame others like Rafael and he will just put in good honest work.
The board and the DOF need to support him now, hope it isn’t too late
