Lampard has had automatics points levels since he has been here with our current defence. What more can he do apart from going more defensive or getting Doug to spend £10 million on a better back.

What more can he do apart from going more defensive or getting Doug to spend £10 million on a better back.like the fact we've conceded 8 in four games and had a mid table defensive record the last two seasons with mostly the same players?
I think they've all improved, I think we can get back to conceding fewer goals, and I think we can do that and still be effective going fwd.
I think our back five are good players. I think we'll struggle to keep up this pace if we let in two each game. I don't think that's warped.
Derby used to flood their pitch before games. It literally looked like a swimming pool a few hours before kick off.I bet it won’t be a 1970s mud bath Baseball Ground or a Villa Park sandy beach.

I mean, we should win, because we are significantly better than them.Looking on their forum, a lot are predicting us to win
Me too. Just not convinced we've nailed down being a consistent enough defensive unit to finish where we are.
Pendulum fans are are always Billy Big Bollocks when it’s going well, then bedwetters when you get one bad result. Keyboard warriors are always quick to wade in to prove they were right all along. Every team will always have a weakest player. A squad can only have 25 players including loans. Any further depth has to be your own youngsters.
We are doing very well. There is still a long way to go. If we can keep the home form going and draw away we will be okay. Yes we will lose some. Every game is tough in this league, but it is the same for the other teams.
Haha. I saw that too!Looking on their forum, a lot are predicting us to winThough some also think Asante will score, so not that convinced they're experts on us!
I remember Strachan saying before we finally won at Villa Park something like; there's no such thing as a hoodoo, we'll win there when we're good enough to.I mean, we should win, because we are significantly better than them.
Annoyingly, that's also been true for a decent number of the other times we've faced them there, too.
Thierry Small is a very good player for them too.Going off their performance on Saturday their no. 2 Valentin was a constant threat down their right, albeit he was up against an ageing McClean but Dasilva will need to be on his game.
Dobbin and Devine were very sharp and will cause us a few problems and the big lump up front was a danger from set pieces.
However, their defence was extremely pedestrian and didn’t look comfortable on the ball so with our press and pace we should have a lot of success.
Oh and their fans were shit. Literally didn’t hear one song until they equalised.
We are due a major refereeing decision/howler in our favour.
We’d have won heavily regardless.We had Wrights blatant offside goal a while back
We knew we had a difficult run of games right through November and December. So far we have won 5 lost 1. This is much better than anyone predicted yet the only conversation is about the game we lost.I’m really nervous about this one and the upcoming run of difficult games. We are struggling to defend as well as we were and we have a number of goalscorers out, although hopefully most if not all - apart from BTA - will be back very soon.
If our season is going to get derailed then it is likely to happen over the next few weeks.
Let’s get a win tonight and calm my nerves!

Plenty off on street parking off Blackpool road if I remember, where we went last year, no issue. 5/10 mins from groundLooking for a plan B if the 2 car parks I'd usually head for are full up. Where have people been parking before please? Just Park etc are all sold out close by.
We had Wrights blatant offside goal a while back
We've had a couple or three sending offs.Have we had 1 pen all season? Given the amount of time/touches we get in the opposition box it just doesn't add up really. Hopefully we can be a parachute team one day and get all the favorable shite decisions that come along with it.
Sheffield WednesdayWhich one?
One against Derby.Have we had 1 pen all season? Given the amount of time/touches we get in the opposition box it just doesn't add up really. Hopefully we can be a parachute team one day and get all the favorable shite decisions that come along with it.
Were any of those not red cards?We've had a couple or three sending offs.
Second yellows? Not sure tbh.Were any of those not red cards?
Think we’ve had 3 players sent off against us this season and all were deserved. Couple of them stupid, but deserved.Second yellows? Not sure tbh.
Yeh sorry thats what i meant, we got 1 and that's it. Doesn't add up to me.One against Derby.
There was nothing technical about it. He didn’t really contest a header outside the box after the initial ball in had been cleared.I agree but I’m also generally not a fan of asking centre forwards to carry out technical defensive work.
