    Do you want Frank Lampard sacked? Yes or No?

    I think l the difference in level between Frank and Moyes when setting up a tactical approach and providing a the team with a way to get the ball forward is still understated. 3 managers that grace the bottom of the list for goals for are Big Sam, Rafael, and Frank with all of them playing a...

    We need the run-in atmosphere from last season for the Wolves game

    Said it before and possibly in another thread but Frank is great with his staff and players he’s just not a manager. He possibly has a future as a DoF somewhere

    We need the run-in atmosphere from last season for the Wolves game

    Besides Maupay and Gana it was a great window and one of the best we’ve had in 5 years. There was a clear strategy and we did well to follow it. Still doubt Maupay was brought in to be a lone striker but here we are since DCL is as fragile as Mina. And to say no one wanted Lampard is as...

    Do you want Frank Lampard sacked? Yes or No?

    Individually put those players up against their like for likes and our current players would beat them besides Arteta (we don’t have a player like him at that level (maybe garner one day)). This is off purely the eye test but each generation get more and more skillful and just because those...

    Do you want Frank Lampard sacked? Yes or No?

    We need to stop thinking of Richy being replaced by Maupay. Richy’s money has allowed us to buy Onana McNeil Maupay and Garner. 1 of which is a nailed on starter and 3 being under 22 years old. Maupay surely isn’t the answer and was against the signing from the start but he’s being used in a way...

    Do you want Frank Lampard sacked? Yes or No?

    “Stripped of its creativity” yet we still have players like Iwobi, Onana, McNeil, and Gray? The true limiting factor of the team isn’t the players it’s the set up and complete lack of instruction besides which long ball to look for to play out from the CBs. Moyes’s teams would batter the...

    a bit of coaching and a serious injection of tactics would get event his team on the front foot. And as for our starters and squad as a whole its the most quality we've had in a squad in 2 decades yet we're in a worse position than we were when the RS was in charge.

    Aussies

    This is an offseason friendly and somehow the instructions seem to be "just dont let them score" and we've barely done that

    Aussies

    Shameful of a manager who has shown the inability to control the middle of the pitch to completely abandon all tactics due to the personnel available in a friendly. Celtic also by far had the better chances and the higher number of chances this game. Celtic may have not score yet making it...

    Aussies

    People who didn't watch this game are going to see a 0-0 score line and say "thats okay, Celtic are a respectable side and we're playing with our B squad" yet we're playing with 6 of our starters, we cant possess the ball for longer than 7 touches, and sat on top of our box as we get dominated...

    Maupay will be in Ligue 2 in 3 years time

    The tactical genius that is Frank Lampard has us playing in a 514 like we haven't had an issue controlling the center of the park all season. Dear Christ I can't with this fraud anymore

    Aussies

    Maupay getting pocketed, looking to play the furthest player through when that fits none of our current STs, Mina getting bullied by 2 Asians half his size, Gordon doing more pirouettes than passes, spending less than 3 mins in possession in Celtics half, Keano getting congratulated by staff on...

    Do you want Frank Lampard sacked? Yes or No?

    The club staying up had near nothing to do with Lampard and everything to do with the lack of Rafael and the fans willing us to safety. Given a more appropriate managerial appointment back then, there would’ve been a much higher likelihood of us reaching safety sooner. The midfield despite all...

    Do you want Frank Lampard sacked? Yes or No?

    We lost to BOURNEMOUTH 7-1 on aggregate in a week, went 3 weeks without registering a shot on net, and have the worst expected goals to expected goals against differential than we’ve had in decades. I don’t know where adding a player or 2 fixes this. The most complete and skilled team we’ve had...
