I think in all honesty it’s hard to criticise Lampard too much. Points back considering where we were, doesn’t seem to have changed much if at all.
Some players are playing better, some haven’t improved sadly.
He wasn’t my first or second choice but he’s done alright and think we’ll see the best of him when he can get the players needed to match what he wants tactically out the squad.
And if he doesn’t we can always go again on the manager circus.
Rudi, Dovin. Arguably EMC but hadn't really been given a chance before. Beyond that, nobody really stepped up. Possibly Lati.Who do you reckon is playing better?
Mason-Clark is the obvious one and Rudoni.Who do you reckon is playing better?
People need to stop making out he's inherited Russel Slades coventry city ffsthey finished 9th and reached a semi final, ttey are top 6 in all the stats maybe the fucking players should start taking their chances and start defending how they did for much of last season
Agree to some extent -Team that beat Leeds, not sure if fans think palmer is the greatest player in history but there isn't wholesale changes hereView attachment 40498
Long story short , the players are letting the club down rather than lacking ability ..
Agree to some extent -
But even that win wasn't a great performance - That win was very similar in reverse to a lot of our performances this year. And remember - it was a total anomaly result compared to a few and most games after.
We put a couple of chances away then we were holding on for most of the game. Bidwell producing a once in a lifetime goal line clearance.
Yes - Plus, the fine margins that we are/have been just on the wrong side of, were in our favour that day.That’s the difference though. They fought til the game was won so to speak.

Robin's expensive subpar deck.To be honest, given we have played 5 times against bottom 4 teams, in those 8 games I would expected a similar points return had Robins been still at the helm. Frank has been fortunate to have had a very kind run of fixtures.
Same frailties remain, still trying to play a brand of football that is incompatible with our squad, I'm not seeing much difference between Robins and Lampard at the minute. The only thing it has done is further highlight that the deck is nowhere near top 6 quality.
Leicester had 10 men for 45 mins…We beat Leicester too with nion the same players , what I mean is there aren't enough changes in the squad to go from playoff contenders until April to absolute shit .. the players are letting the club down , the fans and the manager/s down

Please say this is scored out of 5???Team that beat Leeds, not sure if fans think palmer is the greatest player in history but there isn't wholesale changes hereView attachment 40498

Fair enough but the point stands we were playoff contenders until 6 games to go , they are not shit playersLeicester had 10 men for 45 mins…
So did Cardiff but we couldn’t beat themLeicester had 10 men for 45 mins…

And realistically we should’ve won that game despite being poor.So did Cardiff
Would pull you back to the later bit on your post for that though.One criticism I have was that he played Collins when the club should have told him that he was in the bomb squad for being shit and we signed a £2m keeper so you’d think he should play that guy.
Played Collins too many games which lost us points while he was at the helm. Should have dragged Collins off at half time at Portsmouth. Played JDS too many games. There was points there for the taking.
You could say he was listening to Carr but he should make his own decisions and also like any incoming manager, watch footage on the clubs previous games to make your own opinions and it was glaringly obvious to see to not play those two players.

The 2 best chances fell to CardiffAnd realistically we should’ve won that game despite being poor.
One off performances aren’t proof of anything.
Sakamoto’s goal was easily the best chance of the game lol, he was about 2 yards out with no keeper to beat.The 2 best chances fell to Cardiff
Haji played wide and scored 16 last season, sakamoto scored several before injury.. EMC had no choice but to come out of his shell as he was only playing because haji was injuredLampard has been here 5 weeks. Has spent most of his time in a busy schedule preparing and setting for the next game. I doubt he's had time to even look at all the players properly.
Improvements?
EMC has come out of his shell completely.
Wide players have generally improved as a goal scoring threat.
Some signs of defensive improvement but a long way to go.
Marginally better use of subs.
The same or worse?
Very slow, negative midfield work.
Unmotivated players and a dour management style
Lampard has poor media communication skills and a bit of a depressive demeanor which won't endear him to fans if it carries on.
We need to see Wright and EMC back and what Lampard does re transfers on January and over the summer.
That was when they had 11 menSakamoto’s goal was easily the best chance of the game lol, he was about 2 yards out with no keeper to beat.
We created 3-4 good chances second half that should have given us at least one goal if not more.
