2022/23 Frank Lampard

[nsno-chris]

Good managers find a way to make things work mate. We’re utterly drivel and it’s not just the attack - the midfield setup is appalling.

£25-30m + add ins for Gordon is good money mate

So what’s the option then

Play no wingers, 5 central midfielders?

 

[Eggs]

Imo only difference between watching us under Lampard and Alladyce is we fanny around with it at the back under Fronk.

Watching us in the midfield / final third is like for like imo - lots of sideways and back passes with the hope of nicking a goal and hoping the defence see's the game oot.

…ah, so we’re not playing Allardyce football.

 

[LocalNative]

We really need to buy some footballers.

We’ve brought in 10 players since Lampard has come in. We’re in a constant cycle of always needing an overhaul

It was clear from the entirety of last season that Thelwell needed to prioritise attacking options, that became worse when he sold Richarlison

He’s given us Neal Muapay

I don’t get paid millions to figure that out like the manager does.

A lot of people have been so hoodwinked by how good Lampard talks that they’re unable to criticise him.

I don’t mind Maupay me - proven he can score goals in this league. But not when a lone striker, baffling signing given the way we play him.

We controlled games better at Goodison with Nikica Jelavic up front than we have in this game.

Unreal people are actually arguing against the idea that we should play on the front foot at Goodison against sides in the bottom half of the table.

 

[GoldenToffee]

He didn't even come out in the summer and say we'd be in trouble if we didn't sign a striker. He signed off on this squad. As guilty as Thelwell for this imo.

No mate, people are more than aware that we needed attacking reinforcements in the summer because our attack is gash

We got Neal Maupay, in the last days of the window and Dwight McNeil

Cheers Kev

Neal Maupay was never good enough to replace the goals lost by Richarlison; but that’s what Kev the Kopite thought

That again goes back to my point. Blaming everyone but the manager who without doubt gave the thumbs up to both those signings.

After the toxicity Benitez brought to the club, Lampard can do no wrong in some people’s eyes.

Hi mate, a Director of Footballs job is to provide players for the manager to manage.

He came back with Dwight McNeil and Neal Maupay to add goals and replace Richarlison.

He failed and should be held accountable

Spot on.

Agreed.

But the manager should be held accountable for the performances and ultimately results on the pitch.
