Lampard was rubbish at direby despite being the recipient of Mad Mels shit or bust business model. Still - I hope they keep him - its one more team worse then us.
Yes we have - I’ve said right from the start “Coops will sort it“. Over the last 6 matches we are 9th in the form table. The improvement is very similar to the rate of progress last season when he arrived at Forest bottom of the Champ. If you are a Forest fan you’ll see the squad coming together, the team spirit and trust building this season as it did last season. i have zero doubt we will stay up. Cooper will get his statue next to Cloughy.To be fair, Forest have improved quite a bit recently. They are in the best form of the bottom 8. There will be quite a few teams in trouble if they actually start gaining any sort of consistent form.

Lampard seemed to make Everton quite solid defensively earlier in the season, but that seems to have collapsed. That is a major issue considering they were not really scoring many goals.
It isn't looking promising and I can see him being sacked, but, then again, do Everton actually have the money to sack him? Maybe they will be forced to stick with him.
How come this guy is still in a job?
Richarlison kept you up last year, not Fat Frank.It’s sad. I still like him but the results have caught up with him now. So many losses have put him in Benitez territory of bad in terms of what’s happening on the pitch and that’s not sustainable if we want to stay up. Thanks for keeping us up last year and showing the club and fans that we can connect and have a belief between each other but it might be time to part ways and get a new man in that can navigate the window and survival.

I don’t think he ever had any ideas. The only reason he’s not getting slaughtered continuously is because he is a bloke’s bloke and knows how to play the media. He’s never been anything but shit.Got to think he's gone in the next few weeks. He's completely out of ideas. Pickford, Iwobi, Gordon, its not like this side is fecking 2008 Derby.
Average managers don’t have Everton languishing down where they are at the moment. He’s poor at best.He was average at Derby, despite getting a fortune to spend, average at Chelsea and same at Everton. I wonder how many more jobs he’ll get based on his playing career?
He has no identity and no ideas as a coach, it's painfully obvious.I don’t think he ever had any ideas. The only reason he’s not getting slaughtered continuously is because he is a bloke’s bloke and knows how to play the media. He’s never been anything but shit.
Yeah, average is a generous description of his time at Chelsea as well. They were embarrassingly bad at times.Average managers don’t have Everton languishing down where they are at the moment. He’s poor at best.
Could be gone very soon. Lose heavily to City at Etihad and he'll get the sack few hours before we're in 2023. Which wouldn't be great as we got to play Everton on 6th January in Fa Cup game and I'm not big fan of clubs having new manager bounce against us.
He never is or was a "single 6" defensive midfielder.Once he decided to take Kante from being the best defensive midfielder in the world to trying to play him in a more attacking role, you knew this management game wasn't for him.

Wasn't that Sarri ?

going just the way I predicted it would. The bluenoses on here were fiercely adamant that I was wrong when I said that the best thing they could do is sack him in the summer.
Because there was no justification for it in the summer. He did well and earned the time and chance to try to build something. I don’t think it’s wrong to want someone to succeed and try to do things the right way for once. We tried, it hasn’t worked and now we need to make a decision because it could get a lot worse. It happens.
In terms of who you get in will they have money? When you look at Emrey and Lopetegui they have accepted traditionally smaller roles but they both have money and a project to work with. Do Everton? Think this is vital otherwise you’re looking at the likes of Dyche and that bracket. Even Parker but he fell out with Bournemouth over money.
Gordon should have been sold in the summer when Chelsea offered silly money and it feels like you’ve needed a decent CF since Lukaku. Panic deals like Tosun and now Maupay haven’t helped. Just feels like all round bad planning from top to bottom, especially when it was clear Richarlison was going to be moving on.
It’s been clear for a long time that Moshiri is a terrible owner and has fecked the club massively. From appointing people like Brands as a DoF and then not letting him do his job, to appointing someone like Benitez. He’s an idiot that should have been nowhere near a football club. He’s spunked money up the walls and left us in a sorry state. I feel sorry for Lampard and Thelwell a bit because they have been feeding off scraps in the transfer window trying to get deals done for players we could buy on instalment type deals.
The Gordon thing apparently is guff anyway. People saying 60m etc is far off. It was realistically around 20m with a lot of add-ons which we were never going to accept.
its going to take a miracle to stay up.
