He needs to be given time.
If he fails to win any of the next 5 games in the league I would probably sack him as at the half way point, we'd be in big trouble. But the reality is that 38 points almost certainly guarantees safety these days and we only need 1 win and a draw or 2 to put us around 50% of that total after 50% of the games played. If we strengthen in January I could then see us making a better go of it in the 2nd half of the season and even 45 points would be an improvement on last season.
I appreciate the above is ridiculous in terms of how little my expectations are but i'm just sick of seeing us replace managers and I think Lampard has the potential to improve us. My reasoning is him identifying
Tarkowski and Coady for the spine of the defence, improving Iwobi in CM and strengthening the midfield with Gana and Onana. I know Gana and Onana haven't been amazing yet but I think Onana in particular will improve in the coming years and Gana will always be a valuable player to have for his energy in the midfield.
If he can put us back near the top 10 going in to the new stadium era and then we can either see whether he's right to take us forward then or replace him.
