2021/22 Frank Lampard

[DL100]

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

Alli has proved his class. Just needs some time to settle. Let’s not compare him to Rondon

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.

So benitez for sacking them all?

1-0 up tonight and the ball should have been smashed downfield unti HT.

Game management is appalling.

We are a relegation outfit and that's how relegation outfits get out of trouble. You protect what you have like Tigers.

He proved his class a long time ago. Needs to find it again.

….whenever I see three CBs on the team sheet, it signals to me that two aren’t good enough. If Mykolenko is out, play Townsend as an authentic LB in a back four.

I thought that after the Mina injury Lampard could have tried something different like DCL upfront, four at the back, Alli behind him with Gordon and Richarlison on the wings. Pity he didn' t try, might have worked.

I dont know how much is the manager. Holgate is completely brainless. As you say, get to half time.

I'm not sure you can compare Alli with Rondon

 

[Mozza1987]

No way his fault tonight. Thought we looked in control until they scored. The players once again just fell apart.

 

[Eagle Eye]

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

Dom should have come on for Gray. But maybe Frank didn't want to risk the injury. Ideally Townsend would have moved forward for Gray and an actual left back would have come on. We don't have one. Imbalance in the squad is killing us. Whoever the U23 LB is, needs to start training with the first team....

 

[Gilbert..]

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

Coz it was at Goodison and they have just lost 6 on the bounce.
Away at st james was a complete different scenario.

 

[hktoffee]

Feel sorry for Frank. All these injuries.

You are an utter bell. Rafael was god awful and you defended him at every opportunity, now you have a go at Lampard at the first crack when our lack of confidence is down to Rafael’s inability to manage.

Do one Dave, you kopite mutant

 

[Pat Butcher]

I like him as a guy and player but as a manager at Derby & Chelsea he under achieved big time, not sure why he was brought in

Hope the best for him but we can't play as open as we did, should of got Nuno

 

[ilikecheese]

Rome wasn't built in a week.

I’m not. But if Alli doesn’t perform I hope FL calls it.
