Without some signings feel like we may have to go 5 at the back which I do not think is his preferred system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RuffRob Posted July 25, 2022 Report Share Posted July 25, 2022 https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/ashley-cole-duncan-ferguson-everton-24577506 Interesting interview with Clement. I particular like last part. I think if you are a middle of the road club as we basically are - then your play really does need to be adaptable. To me it doesn't sound like Lampard will be stubborn and put all his eggs in one basket of a playing style or philosophy. He will want to dominate the ball against teams he feel we can and should be trying to dominate, but pragmatic enough to change approach against teams who will just end up battering us. He definitely changed playing style quick enough last season and not persist bashing a square peg in to a round hole, which was really encouraging to see. It's a very difficult job Lampard has come to, but I do hope he is given a fair crack at the whip - not going to be easy to turn our fortunes around given the tool currently at his disposal.

At least we seem to have a plan in the market. It’s going to be a tough year but first team experience for Myko, Godfrey, Patterson, Gordon & Mcneil who are all young. We’ve still got some good players who are in their prime ( Pickford, DCL, Tarkwoski & Mina ). First time in many seasons I feel like we are building a squad with a plan.

RuffRob Posted July 28, 2022 Report Share Posted July 28, 2022 Just like the transfer rumors I have been hearing plenty of rubbish on social media and blogs about Lampard being out of his depth, wanting to walk or should walk blah blah blah. Just pundits and wanna be journalist trying to sound off and justify their time or increase there profile. The more outlandish or controversial there comment just seems to fuel their platform. These view are no more valid and usually less well informed or researched than all our own varied and differing opinions on site forum. Lampard is a hard working professional who wants to succeed as a coach just has he did as a player. Everton is a tough job, just ask his half dozen predessesors. He'll be under no illusions about how tough this job is at this moment in time, but it is a big job at a big club and he will want to make a success of it.

But he will also require the backing from the board on his transfer requirements, he may not be scared of hard work, but also he won’t keep banging his head against a brick wall and getting no where. I would put my neck on the line and say that Tark would have been the only 1 out of the 3 he had on his radar at the end of last season, Vin is definitely a Thirwell signing who doesn’t inspire me, McNeil is also a strange one again another player who wasn’t a first or second choice I believe at the end of last season, I’ve seen and read a few stats on how good he is at 3 or 4 elements and how most on here rate him. I can’t help thinking if he was that good why he wasn’t snapped up earlier by someone or why we weren’t in a battle with 2 or 3 others to get him as we were with Tark, not uplifted or inspired by our business so far this window, and if the truth be known neither will Lampard.

Btay Posted July 28, 2022 Report Share Posted July 28, 2022 (edited) Despite losing Richarlison, which hurts - I think we’ve built a better squad so far with more depth. We’ve lost a quality player so we really need someone to step up, I’m hoping this is Gordon’s real break out year for goals & assists to fill the Richarlison size void.

Thing is you’ve got to be pretty reliable to be a captain. Pickford was all over the place on Saturday, he often is. I’d sooner he is responsible for focusing on his game, far too snarky and confrontational with his teammates and unless you have a blottless copybook you can’t be like that. tarkowski for me.

Class act, makes very logical but so often missed observations in human behaviour…. One that had me laughing was “the stressed man arriving home from work”….. he said the first 2 minutes are crucial for the rest of you night. If you go in ready to vent whilst your kids are showing you pictures they’ve made and you give it the “give me 2 minutes please!” You’ve had it…. Your mrs will have lost any sympathy you may have gotten if you just show true engagement and love, you will get the cup of coffee and a hug once you’ve entered the door in the right mindset. I’ve probably worded that shite, but he spoke in a way that sets lightbulbs off. SAF used him a lot, but SAF didn’t really need him by all accounts as as was instinctively brilliant and has a stupidly high EQ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy to see why Frank has such a high IQ, seems a very thoughtful and intelligent person. He definitely has all the attributes to be a very good man manager, and you can see that building a squad full of people with the right attitude and character are very high on his agenda. He was also talked a lot about alignment of all at the club to be aiming for the same goals and having a clear pathways on getting to them. I think given the right amount of time, I think he will get this club to the right end of the table. Interesting the comment about Sir Alex and his view a reasonable cycle in football is 4 years to get wholesale changes implemented. Arteta will be going in to his 4th year in December, so that rings quite true. I think we really have to stick with Frank and his team, through ups and downs over the next 2 or 3 years at least and remember the low base from which he has started. Change and improvement might take a bit of time, but I get the feeling its going to be done right.

Popular Post Fosse Captain Posted August 12, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 12, 2022 Why do the media / bookies have such a downer on FL & EFC? Constant chatter about FL as one of the first to get sacked. Not a chance for me. United the club. Rebuilding a squad. Reckon the penny has dropped internally as I feel we have a DoF and Manager who are working together. That interview was great. Personally I’m fully behind FL and think as time goes on he’ll become a truly inspired appointment.

badaids Posted August 14, 2022 Report Share Posted August 14, 2022 The Man U and Hammers poor starts will get nearly all the headlines and the analysis, so hopefully will take a bit of pressure of Lamps.

The Phoenix Posted August 14, 2022 Report Share Posted August 14, 2022 We need to be honest and forthright about how well Frank is doing. Yes he managed to create a synergy between our boys on the pitch and us which helped last season. For that we’re forever indebted to him but in all seriousness should we be focusing on the shitness of other teams giving him breathing space to get things right eventually. We’re 2 games in to season of unknown challenges thanks to the World Cup. Results are important now, the confidence of the team and the mental health of us supporters need it Palfy and Matt 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palfy Posted August 14, 2022 Report Share Posted August 14, 2022 The next game for Lampard is huge lose to Forrest and the pressure is on him and his team and tactics, not for once suggesting it’s a make or break game to early in the season for that, but the but is it will show that our progress isn’t being reflected in points or wins and this is definitely a results industry. Lose to Forrest and things are going to get much tougher. Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
