No, the opposite. Where did you get that from?
Tactically - Lampard is pretty good (2 Viewers)

Lampard has access to more and better players than any other manager recently and yet we appear to be going backwards!!
what is going on with him if he can't utilise the wealth of riches we have, is he really one dimensional in tactics and approach? We have bought players in he's not using to good effect, so is his judgement off?
This is n't knocking him, just trying to understand what the fuck is happening to this team.

Because his limitations were exposed at Chelsea ( 2 nd time around ) and Everton. Maybe he can redeem himself but if he doesn't I can't see him being here next season. Under Robins we always seems to start slow and build momentum. This season we seem to be doing it the other way round.

Just seem to have lost our verticality to our play. Early season we were bringing the striker into play early and getting bodies around him. Recently we’re very slow in progressing the ball up the pitch. Also the number of touches attackers seemingly want to take - it’s not a surprise that we’ve gone from 2-3 touch football early in the season to 45 touch football now and our tempo has suffered.
Aside from that, what the boffins call “rest defence” has been (until yesterday) relatively non-existent. Our style and structure has left us quite easy to counter-attack. We seemingly decided not to do anything about it because of our prowess in creating good chances and scoring. Somewhere along the line we became far less clinical and are being punished. If you even think back to the Blackburn/Watford home games they were able to get through our midfield with ease.

Good spot,I noticed that change yesterday too...I think he tried it yesterday with the Middlesbrough game firmly in mind.
Wolfendon was bollicking MVE a fair bit yesterday for losing the shape required frequently.
