2021/22 Frank Lampard

[LocalNative]

Needs time to get his ideas and eventually his players in. But unless he’s willing to be a little pragmatic this won’t end well.

That second half had horrible visions of Martinez’ final few games. No shape, no structure and a general lack of drive from the team.

Absolutely NEED to play with three in midfield. I’m sick of watching us dominated in the middle.

That was very fine margins tonight. Holgate giving away that quick needless corner did for us. The 2 injuries meant we could not refresh the attack in the second half. I blame Frank for signing off on Dele Ali. This lad has done nothing for over 3 seasons. I thought Donny looked quite promising

Lots of nonsense written about this set of players after brentford.
Tonight was the real test for them not brentford.
Failed miserably as they always do. Lampard tried to big them up calling them good players. They're not. Nothing new tonight that wasnt already there. A core of mediocre players who cant dig out results.
Lampard is long haul. But what a rebuild job he has.

Where was our 3rd CM though?

Yes De Beek but would have left little to nothing available on the bench.

Davies
Delph
Doucoure
Gbamin

I keep saying it but if we go down this season the blame should be at the foot of our medical/conditioning department.

They have crippled us all season.

I’m sure only being able to make one change in the second half wasn’t part of his initial plans either ?‍

Meh, just one more another embarrassing showing away at relegation fodder to put alongside all the others we've suffered over the years. As upsetting as it is what difference does it make tbh? Its not like this result will make a difference in the grand scheme of things. It will be our home form and nothing else that dictates what league we play in next season in the end.

 

[Carlito]

Appointing him was a massive risk. Things could easily get worse before they get better.

Neither him nor any of the new signings are a sure thing.

Mate is it still existed? Thought they have been fired by Agent Rafael?

 

[Toast]

Win the cup and go down.

Like Martinez did with Wigan.

Totally agree I was looking at that thinking exactly the same Martinez final season. Loads of lovely passing without a single sniff at goal

You cant play football from the back with players whose confidence is shattered and who aren't that good anyway.

Shelve that and get DCL win the first ball and pick the pieces up from there with he forward players we have.

We must get more recurring muscle injuries than any other team in the league.

 

[bluelegend]

Will learn a lot from tonight. Just hope he doesn’t persist with Alli like RB did with Rondon.

Hang on, why not Brentford? They are 4 points above us.

If we go down it’s not his fault and he shouldn’t be sacked. The absolute state Moshiri and Benitez have left us in.
