So would you give the next manager longer than 6 months or is 6months your limit?

If the next manager is 30 games, a preseason and a transfer window in and I'm still not sure exactly what he's trying to accomplish long term I'll have a very similar level of concern.
Especially if it isn't really working.

I'd agree with you there, it's not that good
But it's MILES better than last season, regardless of the fickle nature of results

I just don't agree there. Miles definitely not, I struggle to even say it is better.
Is it safe to come out yet ?

We actually look like we are playing as a team and have a game plan. The players are working hard and the defender is solid. That is all a big improvement on last year. We still need much more of an attacking edge which Lampard has acknowledged, given we lost Richarlison and DCL is only just coming back it’s not hugely surprising. He needs time to invest in players that can add that dimension. A continued merry go round of Managers is a guaranteed recipe for relegation.

Having made the Frank Lampard thread unreadable he’s now turned up in here to do the same! I’d suggest he head to the Humble Pie thread but not sure that’s the right one for him either

I'll go to that thread when Lampard actually makes me eat it.Having made the Frank Lampard thread unreadable he’s now turned up in here to do the same! I’d suggest he head to the Humble Pie thread but not sure that’s the right one for him either
While we're bottom half still barely over a point per game I won't be doing so!

I mean its clear what hes trying to do, if you look.
Hes rebuilt the defence and made us solid, hes rebuit the midfield, made us solid, attacking wise its not great, but again, 6months into the job 2 out 3 issues resolved, that seems like progress.
Im not sure you realise how little time 6months is in football.
Under Arteta after 6months Arsenal had tanked. Under Plopp Liverpool finished 8th, even Pep, Jose, Carlo.
All these managers had a shaky first 6months.
Its not how you start, its how you finish.
But again, if you really cant see progess, its pointless trying to show you it.

Some dont want to see it, cos it makes them wrong. Which to some folk, being wrong on the internet is an eternal shame.
If I had a pound for every time I was wrong........................
Some people just take the default "It will fail" and 10 times out of 10 they are correct, cos in the end, it always fails, no manager will ever do a Fergie again.
But honestly, Big Oil honestly hates Frank cos he played Mount instead of Pullasick at Chelsea, its really that simple.
Just stop, Oil

You are almost certainly right. Footie is different now, in some ways. Be funny as fudge if Lampard got close mind!

If this *waves arms frantically in the direction of the Fulham second half* is what he's trying to do then yeah I've got major concerns about the viability.
I say I don't see what he's trying to do honestly because I want to believe he's not down the path he intends to follow yet. If he is, well, yikes. It's a very disjointed team. The defense is solid only when all attacking and pressing is sacrificed.
