Brighton beat Leeds on Sunday we need 1 point from 3 games which surely puts us over the line,If we had taken the three points last night we wouldnt need any.
If you had said before the Burnley away game that we lose to them and only draw at Watford you wouldnt give us a prayer.Last night was disappointing but it doesnt damage moral a defeat would have been a body blow.
Leeds win and Burnley win ,we don't its back to a really squeaky bum.

If he keeps this team up, he tactically got it right.
He is on a learning curve, he put it all on the line to join us, with where we were at, the spend we'd had etc.
He adjusted when he realised what he had to work with, and 7 from 9 in the last 10 days has been nothing short of a miracle.
If we'd got nothing from Chelsea and Leicester, we'd be 5 points off Leeds, needing all sorts to happen.
Some are losing sight of this.

In terms of his management style.
Results is all that matters.
Most people would rather be Klopp's mate, then Pep's, based on personality etc, yet it will be Pep lifting 4th league in 5 years.

Lampard is a winner. Worked with some of the best Managers of the modern era, and is working with this hotpotch squad, having had no time or money to put an identity in place.

If we come out of this season, with the new bond created between Manager and Fans, and a decent overhaul of the squad, we will be a different beast next year.

Thank God.


Oh absolutely, I think Lampard has gotten quite a few things wrong, but crucially he’s gotten some vital things absolutely spot on.

Most importantly he’s learning from his mistakes and finding ways to get the most of a limited bunch.

He got given 5 days in January to bring in his players, and inherited players he didn’t necessarily want in Patterson, Mykolenko and El Ghazi.

Goodison has been a morgue for years, so to come in and turn it into a thriving hot bed of atmosphere, in 12 weeks is nothing short of incredible.

Hope, if we stay up, he really gets the chance to mark the team with players he thinks will flourish.
