Some real belters on here!

Particularly enjoy the confidence some opinions are delivered by certain posters, who actually find themselves regularly wrong…

Im saying I wouldn’t hold my breath for us to suddenly start playing differently. If we keep Haji and Rudi and they stay in form we’ll be OK but Lampard has never been a “greater than the sum of your parts” manager. In expecting upper midtable this season 8-12 but that’s just on the quality of our squad. If we want promotion under Lampard we’ll need a much better squad.

No I’m NOT calling for his replacement already but…questions need to be asked.

The quite ridiculous sticking to a rigid tactical formation (without changing to another) that clearly wasn’t doing anything against a Hull side clearly there for the taking.

Lack of a pressing system that FL said that he himself would like to adopt. High press and attacking football I think he said-which we have only seen fleetingly.

Leaving a striker on the bench and bringing on a left back as a winger when we clearly need a goal. In fact bringing on a clearly unfit striker in a central role we all know he clearly can’t do and bringing off the one player who looked like he could create something was baffling.

Not advocating anything rash but FL has the whole of the summer to address the tactical side and thinking of alternatives if one system doesn’t work.

Same old ponderous slow build up bollocks-is it the players or the system?

Playing Hull was a perfect opportunity to be a bit more risky and try something different.

I’ve not mentioned recruitment deliberately as that out of FL’s hands. But we clearly need some pace and creativity in this team.

Positives-we didn’t look like conceding and the goalie was bloody brilliant.

Just trying to stimulate some discussion NOT calling for Franks replacement or wetting the bed!

Thoughts?

As with everything on here views are very binary.

Only a few of us are able to do nuance.

Reading my post thoroughly I was discussing the performance of the team of that particular match-which for those of us that went it wasn’t particularly awe inspiring.

It wasn’t a call for a sacking-merely a critique of how the season would go if we continued the way we played in that first game.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing and I know nobody on here predicted that we’d be running away with the league title either.

What’s very satisfying is that Frank and his team has evolved and got better since that first game.

Most of us on here would love another draw at Hull tomorrow just like we did in the first match.

I may be guilty as I posted something on another thread being critical.
