Fair play… he got it right today. Great result and performance ?

No doubt his best days are behind him, though he did do very well at NUFC with no spend and a championship squad. Again…I have said repeatedly he was the wrong appointment and I wouldn’t have chosen him. But Lampard… in my opinion he’s a fraud of a manager, getting by on playing reputation alone.

Good post ? I’m not saying at all that Benitez did better. In fact I repeatedly said he should never have been appointed. I’m saying that, on paper, he is quite obviously a far superior manager. Lampard has zero credentials to warrant getting a top job, and has been largely uninspiring...

Nuno was sacked by Tottenham in December? So he was available, right? And Emery? Or perhaps last summer we should have had the foresight to hire Eddie Howe. He’s working miracles at NUFC, albeit with a decent January window. Look…if you’re looking at Lampard and seeing anything in him to...

Firstly, yes I am an Everton fan… it’s possible to have opinions that don’t quite match the go-to opinion. I think everyone is missing my point. My point is predominately that Lampard is absolutely the wrong appointment following Benitez. I never wanted Benitez, but it’s pointless trying to...

I’m not bigging him up, per se. His record was poor. But he’s clearly a capable manager, at the wrong club. To replace him with Lampard is the bigger crime. We still had almost half the season to go.

Have you watched us play? ?

I agree with you, but to replace him with Frank Lampard is an even bigger crime. We were 6 points above the relegation zone when Benitez left… we brought in an inexperienced manager with zero credentials… and now we’re 5 points adrift in the relegation zone. Both appointments were dreadful for...

If we go down we’ll come back up within 2-3 years. It’s not the end of the world. If you ask Fulham fans, Newcastle fans, Watford fans… the Championship can be a lot of fun. It’s still football. Hell, we might even win most of our games and see exciting games. More fun than battling to stay up...

Which part? The Benitez part? Look I’m not saying I like Benitez, but I’m pretty sure if you asked 1000 PL football fans who the better tactical manager is, Benitez or Lampard… 975 of them would say Benitez, and the other 25 would be Everton fans. I don’t like the guy, but don’t pretend our...

Which bit specifically? What exactly has Lampard shown so far that tells you he’s capable of keeping us up and/or bringing us back up next year?

I don’t doubt that match going fans would take to him, but it’s primarily because he’s not Benitez, and we don’t have a choice do we…. We have to get behind the team in the stadium or else we would go down with an even bigger whimper. I went to the Newcastle game and I agree the atmosphere was...

Benitez, as much as dislike him as a person, has a proven track record of winning things. He started very well, but as soon as it went south a little bit, fans jumped on his back, and it was always doomed to fail. He’s clearly a good manager, just nowhere near right for this club. Our players...

First post on here, so bear with me. Although I was happy enough with the Lampard appointment when it happened, I think it’s been proven now to be a pretty disastrous one. His tactics are non existent, his demeanour is dreadful, he lacks any motivational ability it seems, and he’s constantly...
