Three I think for a straight red

Think it’s harsh to judge him if we don’t make it. Understand the perceptive and the season at the club should be seen as a failure but for us to be here with the injuries we have should been seen as success for lampard even if that success is 17th to 7th imo.

It’s just a pendulum imo. I’m sure people felt the same in the past when for instance Queen’s Park in Scotland started to favour possession over a direct approach in the very early history of the game. It’ll keep changing based on what works and then tactics will be made to break what works and...

Robins said this a lot over the last years he was here about football becoming more like Chess for managers. Sadly those moments of magic come at the expense of the managers control of the game. Ultimately tho I do think it’ll switch back when new styles come over here (Relationism)

Tbf feel there is a good chance for both 5th and 6th atm. Both 3rd and 4th struggling to get any momentum atm, both seemingly having their own problems. Probably get battered now I’ve said it mind 😅

Is it bad I actually kinda like this idea. Only problem is the other CBs we have. But with the crosses we have and his accurate headers…

Must win isn’t it. Could even secure 5th let alone the playoffs depending on results tonight and on the day. Been posting squads all season but will just back Lampard on the day including Collins as trying to stay as positive as I can so I’m not a nervous wreck on the day 🤣

I’ll always argue you make your own luck. Great to get those goals sure but in both people forced the issue whether that was Simms putting pressure on a young keeper ( as he was told to by Grimes), or the team pilling on top of pompy at the death ( Thomas being up front so the CB had a harder...

Rewatching the match, he definitely kept us at 0 - 0. Especially with his Walsh save. Absolute mental decision which I still can’t understand at all

More MVE for Plymouth although he should been saving them.

Plymouth granted but it’s hard to keep in a game when you go down to ten men so early. Felt we dug in well today against a team desperate for a win to have a chance. Just a shame the shit at the end happened

Yeah but we haven’t made the playoffs and at this rate don’t think we will

I know there safe but Sunderland have completely collapsed form wise. Could hurt them going to the play offs

Will say Morris is everything Simms should be. Would score loads in our system imo. Need Simms to get some fire and aggression going. He’s got all the physical attributes but his play just winds me up with how passive he is. Was brilliant against Wednesday where’s that simms gone

The bad thing about today is if he didn’t come at the end. We’d be saying he had a good game with some decent saves and hope that sorts his confidence. Absolutely gutted for us and him.

Gutted. Collins did well earlier in the game. Why did he come out like that

Collins Lati - Kitching - Binks - Dasilva Sheaf - Grimes Sakamoto - Rudoni - Wright Simms

If we wanted to play a five at the back. Would either have to be Lati or Eccles if fit as RWB. If I’m not wrong Sheaf has played CB before? Although wouldn’t back him against these lot just due to physicality

I don’t get it. I just simply don’t get it.

It does appear to be a more intense system with the higher press and line. Doesn’t help the size of the squad with options tbf
