They'll get nowhere with Lampard in charge,
Sounds like he's Everton through and through.

Incredible that a football fan can watch what went on in Goodison last night and make a comment like that. Like lifting the Premier league is the only thing that matters in football. 99% of fans never get near the dizzy heights that Chelsea or, God be with the days, United fans have experienced. If anything, last night was far more real. Of course it's just as worthy of celebration.The sight of Lampard celebrating in the stands on avoiding relegation...the very definition of embarrassing given the career he's had.
Everton are destined for failure under his management; for their sake I hope they realise this sooner rather than later.
Gotta love them bitters. The real peoples club in liverpool.

So many fans of big clubs are so far removed from football fan culture it’s crazy.Incredible that a football fan can watch what went on in Goodison last night and make a comment like that.

Good for Everton, I personally would rather see Burnley or Leeds go down but he's just a shit Ole really. Doubt he finishes next season with them.
Rooney did a much better job and got relegated.
He had kids and journeymen and no transfers and held off relegation deep into the season with a 21 point deduction. Derby would have easily stayed up without that deduction. The football was decent too.
Because our legend is better than your legendWhy bring Rooney into it?
Jags are gonna be nasty this year dw- Trevor Lawrence will kill it with DP I have a feeling.I think the fact fact the true victory for many teams is simply surviving, not risking their traditions sliding down and never making it back up, is one of the things that make the Premiere league so compelling.
I’m a Jacksonville jaguars fan… and it is horribly painful. There aren’t even small Victories to look forward to. You stay exactly where you are, year after year, even if you are the worst run team in the league. It’s worse than horrible: it’s monotonous and horrible.
Congratulations to Everton. Frank isn’t the answer though. If I’m not mistaken Franks family were in the youth development side of things at West Ham? He would probably think that’s “beneath him”, but I think that’s where he would do the most good. He had a massive impact on some talents we would normally let wither on the vine.
Why bring Rooney into it?
I think they should stick with him tbh. It's silly to hire a young manager and sack them quickly - if you want instant success/stability you can keep hiring from the treadmill of older managers who can get the job done, but there will never be genuine progression going that way. Gut instinct tells me Lampard will be a good manager in time. He's brighter than your average pro, built a career off of maximising his abilities, has a ton of experience to call upon from his playing days, close family were coaches and managers, and has a promotion under his belt.
I think he was the wrong appointment last season, probably wasn't the right manager to turn around a sinking ship, but with a fresh start he'll be fine. Everton's a mess so it's not an easy job. Even at Chelsea, he was there during their transfer embargo and did well in the circumstances. Compared to say Gerrard who is getting plaudits at Villa, but Villa weren't in bad shape when he took over and had good, mostly young players whose careers were on an upward trajectory. Fortunes change quickly in football, I'd put my money on Lampard having a more successful managerial career than Gerrard.
They are at risk of falling fowl of the FFP rules in the PLDo Everton have no money? What's up with their transfer strategy?
Could our big lad Scotty do a job for you in midfield?The problem is that we have an issue where our players aren’t good enough to play 4 at the back. We played a 3-4-3 today and the back 5 was excellent. I have no worries about a defensive unit of Patterson, Godfrey, Mina, Tarkowski and Mykolenko. The issue is midfield. It’s nowhere near good enough to either create or cover the defence and without improving it we will struggle immensely.

Before they got the oil money I would have said Newcastle as well.Scotty screams Everton @ £40+ million and does feck all, doesn’t he?
Have to say I can't understand the hate when it comes to him, a brilliant player, his coaching career not so much yet but might get there
