I don't get why anyone would protest against oil painting. 😶

It does opened. Free transfers will go through on July 1st, because all player's contracts run out at that date.

Signed a new contract until June 24

Why? He took 5 points away from Burnley this month.

I just hope he doesn't leave for another team in the prem. Though I can't see him excel at top clubs like Real and Barca. I think he is best suited for clubs like Sevilla, Napoli, Marseille, who play continental football every year, but are not at the top.

This is embarrassing. Just highlights the season we have gone through. A lot to be asked from Lampard next season. His understanding of tactical side must improve along with the playing staff.

It was a tactical masterstroke from Frank. Lull Palace into thinking they'll be up against a shit Andre Gomes all game and BAM, you got Dele'd

COME ON HOLD THE LINE

We are a lost cause. Only Burnley and Leeds can save us now.

We don't need James though. He was vastly overpaid and had fitness issues. Alli was bought to fill that creative void in our squad, but seems he's not the right fit for us either.

Yes! And then later, when it gets dark we go home. 

If we stay up, and I think we will, should we finish 15th next season we still need to stick with Frank. The club needs consistency. We need a manager and director of football pulling in the same direction for the long term. 

Lampard has had long enough to change mentality and tactics and find away to win but we haven’t seen that, amazingly Burnley sack their manager immediate improvement like light and day, Leeds sack their manager again immediate improvement, we sack our manager and no improvement in 12 league games, it’s ridiculous to blame Rafa for what’s happening now that’s burying your head in sand and not accepting the reality that Lampard hasn’t done what he was brought here to do. Not wrong to sack Rafa poor decision to give the job to a manager with very little experience and none in what fighting a relegation battle takes, but that’s the fault of Moshiri who obviously thought we have 18 games left we are 4 or 5 points clear of a relegation spot, he took a gamble and he lost and supporters are giving him away out by blaming Rafa, never heard so much bollocks in my life, stop being a victim and face the fact Lampard wasn’t the man for where we were. And Moshiri is a complete disaster for this club. 

I’m getting a bit pissed off now with people trying to say I’m defending Rafa, what I’m saying is Lampard hasn’t improved us as in our position it’s got worse, unfortunately not my fault look at the league table it’s a fact, whether we look better or the players are happier means jack shit if that doesn’t transpire into wins and points, and I would disagree with the players looking happier, DCL, Richarlison, Doucoure, Allan, Keane, Pickford, all look miserable as fuck, I haven’t seen many playing with a smile on there face for a long time. We aren’t playing like a team that’s improved we are playing with fear and lack of confidence, fear in our defending and lack of confidence in our attempts at goal. If people are still happy to be relegated because Lampard’s better than Rafa then crack on, but I’m not happy Rafa was sacked to bring in a manager who would turn our season round, but it hasn’t worked and not saying we shouldn’t have sacked Rafa, I’m saying we shouldn’t have given the job to Lampard in the situation we were in his lack of experience meant the job was above his ability and experience, I said it when he was given the job and sadly it’s looking that way. 

Good performance’s aren’t going to come with this manager and this group of players, so don’t delude yourself that they will 4-0 away to Palace will hopefully help you see that, if we stay up it will be because of the home fans forcing the players to give everything, and not because of Lampard or performance’s of ability.

That's the luckiest guess I ever had on Wordle.

I live 270 km south of Ukraine on the black sea coast. I fear my city could become frontline of further military actions should this escalate. It doesn't help there is NATO base very close from here. Sorry but I have to be realistic and weight the odds for the good sake of my family.

We all condemn Russian invasion and wish Putin die, but it is in the hands of NATO to decide whether it will be WW3 or not. I fully expect the whole madness to be over in a matter of weeks/month should NATO not interfere, as it happened in Georgia in 2008 by the way. Putin wants cut down West influence in neighboring countries and stop further NATO expansion. Ukraine potentially joining NATO would be a huge blow to Russia dominance in the region, so he couldn't let that happen. There are unlikely to be many civilian casualties should NATO stay away. Otherwise we are all doomed.

I’m more worried about getting to 50 to be honest. Don’t feel my body can make it supporting Everton!!!

No.

The main reason I now want Lampard over Pereira is that he isn’t being put in place by Kia. And I want fuck all to do with him at the club. 

Honestly why do people want Lampard? I don't buy the "he knows the league" argument. Truth is Pereira doesn't look qualified for this job, but at least has some level of experience and actual trophies in his CV. Lampard hasn't won a thing. His managerial experience is next to none. It's a difficult job he's facing here. There's nothing that suggest he could do better than Pereira. I am huge fan of his footballing talent and perhaps he will turn out to be fantastic manager, but we are in a very difficult situation and there's zero evidence he is capable to turn things around in a short manner. At this point I would much rather chose between Rooney and Duncan. At least they have sentiment towards the club and surely know the league as well.

Nico all the way. He's been successful at Frankfurt, Bayern and Monaco.
